Research direction
Review the linked SSPI library (requests negotiate sspi) to understand the authentication flow. Examine HTTP.jl's current authentication handling in its source code. The issue lacks specific design details, so initiating a discussion with the maintainers to clarify the expected interface and scope is recommended. Consider referencing how other HTTP libraries implement Negotiate/SSPI authentication.
