[RFE] fence_rhevm should support authentication using cookies

Account: BANQUE CARREFOUR DE LA SECURITE SOCIALE  1086995

3. What is the nature and description of the request?
fence_rhevm command should be able to authenticate via session cookie .

4. Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements here)
- By using the cookie, not only do we stop the flooding of authentication messages, we can also limit the stress on the authentication backend (IPA) .
- When the authentication backend fails, the cookie makes sure fencing/monitoring can continue .


5. How would the customer like to achieve this? (List the functional requirements here)
fence_rhevm should have some construct that stores cookie when run once / first time / after previous session cookie expire .
This cookie should be used for next fence commands until a timeout value .

6. For each functional requirement listed, specify how Red Hat and the customer can test to confirm the requirement is successfully implemented.

No
