Is it possible to use a secure connection between Metricbeat Zookeeper module and Zookeeper.

I mean is it possible

- to enable SASL authentication on Zookeeper side [https://docs.confluent.io/current/security/zk-security.html](https://docs.confluent.io/current/security/zk-security.html)
- to use a TLS connection as described in [https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/ZOOKEEPER/ZooKeeper+SSL+User+Guide](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/ZOOKEEPER/ZooKeeper+SSL+User+Guide)
