Authenticates using some credentials, e.g. an MIT certificate.

 @param [Hash] options credentials to be used for authentication
 @option options [String] :cert path to MIT client certificate for the user
 @option options [Hash] :kerberos:: Kerberos credentials, encoded as a Hash
     with :user and :pass keys
 @return [Stellar::Client] self, for convenient method chaining
