      Drivers should be able to provide a authentication realm when authenticating using Kerberos. Java example below.

      MongoCredential gssAPICred = MongoCredential
.createGSSAPICredential(KERBEROS + "@WINDOWSREALM.COM")
.withMechanismProperty("REALM", "LINUXREALM.COM")
.withMechanismProperty("CANONICALIZE_HOST_NAME", true);

      NOTE: this Java example is how this could be exposed in the Java driver. It doesn't actually work this way now. The Java driver does not support a "REALM" mechanism property.

      This is to allow for cross realm authentication.
