SASL SCRAM authentication support

[popadi]

I see that this issue #601 was closed without any conclusion. I see that faust-streaming/faust has SCRAM 256 and 512 as available SASL mechanisms. Any plans on having it available for robinhood/faust too?

Nothing more than adding those two extra options to the enum needs to be done, the underlying authentication libs will take care of everything. I can make a PR with the same changes myself if that's okay.

This repo hasn't been touched in over a year, so I think it's unlikely that any changes will be merged any time soon. faust-streaming is where all new development is happening.

So if people want to be up to date with bug fixes and features they should just switch to faust-streaming/faust? (I guess that was the main reason for the fork)

@popadi - yes, the fork has a lot of fixes and improvements that are not in the base repo.

Thanks for the answers!
