Description of problem:

Currently for the appliance, the only option to configure it for SAML auth is the manual process to do so via https://www.manageiq.org/docs/reference/latest/auth/saml.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):



Expected results:


We should provide the ability to do so via the appliance_console_cli, taking in as parameter the IDP metadata file path and generating the miqsp-metadata.xml file required for creating the client definition in the Identity Provider.

The new appliance_console_cli subcommand should also configure the appliance for external auth for SAML so no UI configuration needs to be done afterward.
