Research direction

Start by reviewing the etcetra client entry points and how the etcdctl example connects with --user authentication. The issue names no files or tests, so first determine where connection credentials are configured and whether authentication is exposed. Done means an etcetra client can authenticate to the described non-TLS etcd cluster with a username and password.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

I have remote etcd cluster running without TLS but authentication enabled.

I can use etcdctl client with authentication:
etcdctl --endpoints='etcd:2379' --user='root:passwd' get '/test_key'

How to enable similar user/password authentication with etcetra client?
