A generic FSM has been added to DDS Security Core component to realize authentication handshake process.
The list of the states and the transitions are given in the creation and the FSM is started with a start call.
Passing arguments to transition funstions is possible.
Timeout transitions are possible.

Security plugin loading with the given configuration has been added.
The configuration can be given by either the Cyclone DDS configuration file or ParticipantQoS during participant creation.
ParticipantQoS is required by DDS Security spec. However, the configuration file is an additional useful feature that helps the user to add security to the DDS application without changing the binary.
If ParticipantQoS has a Property starting with the name "dds.sec", then the configuration file is ignored.
If the participant is the first participant, the security component is initialized. If the participant is the last active participant, then the security component is de-initialized.

Builtin authentication plugin of DDS Security implementation was added.
This plugin is the first implementation and it also contains the functions that are used initially in the secure communication sequence.
The builtin authentication plugin implements authentication using a trusted Certificate Authority (CA). It performs mutual authentication between discovered participants using the RSA or ECDSA Digital Signature Algorithms and establishes a shared secret using Diffie-Hellman (DH) or Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) Key Agreement Methods.
DDS Security core component is introduced with this commit. DDSI and other builtin plugins will also use the security core.
Like all builtin plugins, dds security authentication plugin is a shared library for providing dynamic library loading on runtime. So that, dds participants can use different plugin implementations with different configurations.
Authentication plugin uses ddsrt functions. ddsrt is not expected to be a shared library and statically adding ddsrt objects to authentication library produces linkage errors in windows. So, dynamically linking authentication plugin to ddc library is decided. Another decision should be taken for the platforms that are not supporting dynamic libraries later.
