Support for public CA for SASL for Aiven for Apache Kafka
As developer,
I want to use public CA (i.e. Let's Encrypt),
so that I can connect to my Apache for Kafka service without installing any additional certificates.
In addition, I can trust publish authority issuing certificates instead of validating 3rd party certificates.

This is a very important feature for us. Opening a ticket for requesting a public CA for each new Kafka cluster reduces the productivity of Data Engineers because they need to wait one day to use the Kafka cluster for their development.

This is necessary since integrating other cloud providers with Aiven fails since they don't trust internal CA used for SASL auth. I was confused this isn't already default since REST uses Letsencrypt.
