Passing auth result (client identity) to backend #794

@myidpt

Description

@myidpt

When mTLS is enabled, Sever side Envoy needs to send the client identity to the backend through HTTP header, so that backend can do its own check/processing based on the client identity.
Questions:
What HTTP header do we use?
How do we support this for non-HTTP requests (This is a stretch goal)?
