Description
Currently when using OAuth2, credentials can be specified by setting the oAuth2SecretsJsonPath property. It would be great if another property existed named oAuth2SecretsJson so that the secrets don't have to be written to disk but instead can be read directly from environment variables.

Research direction
Start by locating the OAuth2 configuration that currently handles oAuth2SecretsJsonPath in the .NET client library. Trace how that property loads credentials, then define the corresponding oAuth2SecretsJson path for reading JSON directly from environment-provided configuration; the work is done when OAuth2 credentials can be supplied without writing a secrets file.
