Make authentications availability and location more flexible. For example, credentials for within body of request.

"Make authentications available for use within the body of or as parameters for the request. Some integrations and usecases like CURL or HTTPRequest I was looking to pass the credentials as a part of the body.  Perhaps you set an authentication for a specific integration (e.g., curl) then you can substitute them with variables      ""auth"": {        ""identity"": {            ""methods"": [""password""],            ""password"": {                ""user"": {                    ""domain"": {                        ""id"": ""default""                    },                    ""name"": $httpRequest.auth[""username""],                    ""password"": $httpRequest.auth[""password""]                }            }        },"
