When using IP to connect, no SNI is sent so the Fallback certificate has to be used in these cases. But when using Fallback certificate, there is currently no support for auth. This change adds the auth filter to add support for the fallback certificate.

Fixes #6512

Thanks for the PR! Code change LGTM, just need to add a test case. You'll also need to make sure all of your commits have DCO signoff.

Thanks @erikflores7, LGTM!

…ing Fallback certificates, the global auth was previously ignored. This is needed when using IP routing with no SNI. \n Fixes projectcontour#6512

Thank you for the quick reviews!

By the way, would you happen to know what the lift is to get this added at the HTTPProxy level? There's a comment about the different connection managers: https://github.com/projectcontour/contour/blob/main/internal/dag/httpproxy_processor.go#L280-L290

I have to look into this more, but I believe when using the Global Ext Auth that the auth check fires before an HTTP -> HTTPS redirect happens where as when setting auth at proxy level that doesn't seem to be an issue

Just to clarify, the use case that isn't working for you is when global ExtAuthz is enabled, and you have TLS-enabled HTTPProxies, and insecure HTTP requests being made to them? Because I would expect global ext auth to already work correctly for both (a) HTTPProxies without TLS (this was what the feature was originally implemented for), and (b) HTTPProxies with TLS, and requests made over HTTPS/TLS.
