Description

### Impacted plugin

Jetpack

### What

We would like to add the ability to authenticate to 3rd party services from the Publicize panel in the post editor.

### How

We will add a new locally hosted API endpoint in Jetpack that exposes the the external-services API endpoint on WPCOM. This will allow us to avoid CORS issues on self-hosted sites.

From our new endpoint we can accesses the connect_URL variable to begin the 3rd party authentication work-flow.

Please see the "Authorizing With External Services P2" pb5gDS-1oZ-p2 post for more information.
