Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the Spark CR definition and the existing configuration and volume-mount handling, then trace how a keytab, Kerberos configuration, and principal could be represented. Done means the CR can specify these values and Spark can use them when accessing Kerberos-protected HDFS or Hive.
