> We need to generalize peer verification.  Right now the peer verification callback ({{org.wildfly.security.auth.callback.VerifyPeerTrustedCallback}}) is specific to X.509 certificate chains, but other mechanisms might use different peer credentials for the verification.
> An ideal API might use an optional Principal and an optional Credential.  For Entity, a {{org.wildfly.security.credential.X509CertificateChainPublicCredential}} might be used for the Credential, and the Principal would be extracted from that.  For key-based authentication, the principal could be the NamePrincipal of the host name and the credential would be a PublicKeyCredential.
