Meant to be used in confidential client applications, an instance of ClientCredential is passed to the constructors of (ConfidentialClientApplication) as credentials proving that the application (the client) is what it claims it is. These credentials can be either a client secret (an application password) or a certificate. This class has one constructor for each case. These credentials are added in the application registration portal (in the secret section).
