public interface PrincipalSupportingComponent
```
Interface for an authentication component that exposes custom Principal objects.
Components may expose principals based on both the potential to support them, or because they actively contain them, depending on the nature of a component. Calling components rely on this interface to determine whether a supporting component applies to a given operation or request based on the principals returned.
