Define a weak function which checks if the environment variable
capsule_authentication_enabled has been set, for enabling capsule
authentication. Other platforms might have a different mechanism to
determine this, and would then define their own platform specific
function.

I cannot yet understand the concrete need for such a function.

Is there any Linaro customer who actually needs it? What is the use case?

Best regards

additional knob, so this weak function will go away.
