Description

The SPIFFE Workload api can be used to fetch and keep up to date tls certs/keys (Default 1 hour validity window). I would like to be able to have a flag to just enable SPIFFE support in the TLSConfig and optionally give it a list of spiffe id's to allow access.

Research direction

Start by locating TLSConfig and reviewing how TLS certificates and keys are currently configured. Then read the SPIFFE Workload API requirements and determine how the requested flag, certificate refresh, and optional SPIFFE ID allowlist should fit together. Done means SPIFFE support can be enabled through TLSConfig and access can optionally be restricted to the supplied IDs.
