[keycloak-user] Login to Admin REST API from client

[Alex Berg]

It's in the docs if you search for client credentials.

Use "$CLIENT_NAME:$CLIENT_SECRET" as the username and password, and
grant_type=client_credentials, and ensure the client has a role of
"realm-admin" or similar to enable it to use the Admin API.

Practice by crafting a curl command. There's a curl command example in the
docs.
