DefaultAuthentication and AzAuth

[Natraj Yegnaraman (rajyraman)]

Can we please use a subclass of TokenCredential, rather than use DefaultAzureCredential always?

PowerPlatform-DataverseServiceClient/src/GeneralTools/DataverseClient/Extensions/Microsoft.PowerPlatform.Dataverse.Client.AzAuth/AzAuth.cs

Line 20 in e5c182b

private DefaultAzureCredential _defaultAzureCredential;

Reason being it is easier to use ChainedTokenCredential and force auth to resolve auth using only ManagedIdentityCredential and EnvironmentCredential for example. Without the use of ChainedTokenCredential, you have to use a whole bunch of exclude flags on DefaultAzureCredentialOptions (see example below). To me, this feels bit clunky.

There was a survey I filled recently on LinkedIn on this topic, and I thought I will log this as a discussion item today.
