Description

Encryption key material can be stored either inside Parquet files, or outside (configurable). For outside storage, Parquet already has a pluggable interface for custom implementations, `FileKeyMaterialStore,` but no mechanism to load them (currently, one implementation is packaged in parquet-mr, and always loaded when outside storage is configured). We will provide a way to load custom implementations of the `FileKeyMaterialStore`.

Research direction

Start with the FileKeyMaterialStore interface and the existing implementation packaged in parquet-mr, then trace how outside key material is configured and loaded. Done means custom FileKeyMaterialStore implementations can be selected and loaded instead of always using the packaged implementation.
