    Description

      Related to MB-9982, XDCR need a way to security send checkpoints to relevant destination nodes per vbmap. Since XDCR does not expose any external network interfaces and is not certificate aware, NS_SERVER is asked to act as a "transport proxy", assisting with hauling these payloads.

      High level:

      1. NS_SERVER need to pass on certificate location to XDCR on bootstrap and also restart it when certs changes.
      2. XDCR on node A, can make a call to NS_SERVER on node B, via special proxy endpoint (_xdcr), which will be proxied to B's XDCR service.
      3. NS_SERVER should enforce high privileged internal service authenticate on the special xdcr endpoint .

      More details about the proposal can be found here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eTDw3Jx0HPXoQ4_iCEwdGeRttZQzAtEl2pXplldqJDo/edit?ts=60e8b5ad
