Implements RANGER-5627: configuration-based
Ranger Admin super users and super groups via
ranger.admin.super.usersandranger.admin.super.groupsinranger-admin-site.xml.Problem addressed: Externally authenticated users (LDAP/Kerberos/OIDC/SAML) could
not be designated as Ranger administrators without Ranger managed DB roles. Deployments
relied on shared local
adminaccounts, limiting enterprise IdM integration, SSO/K8smodels, and per-user auditability.
Solution: Matching users receive full admin session flags, Spring Security roles,
module permissions, and REST authorization at login without changing
x_portal_user_role. Authentication provider remains independent of the elevationdecision. Backward compatible when both config properties are empty. Re-login
required after config or UserSync group membership changes.
