Missing Management API functionality for linking user accounts

The Java Auth0 API is missing the ability to link accounts using the "link_with" body parameter option. This is useful for when the client sends the secondary ID token to link with.

Describe the ideal solution

Override the linkIdentity method in UsersEntity.java to support the ability to supply a ID token instead of a connection and provider string. See: https://auth0.com/docs/api/management/v2#!/Users/post_identities

Alternatives and current work-arounds

The only known work around is to manual decode and verify the ID token and extract the ID to use with the existing method.
