"""Acquire credentials through provided password.
This function is originally from Solaris and is not documented by either
MIT or Heimdal.
In general, it functions similarly to
:func:`~gssapi.raw.creds.acquire_cred`.
Args:
name (~gssapi.raw.names.Name): the name to acquire credentials for
password (bytes): the password used to acquire credentialss with
lifetime (int): the lifetime for the credentials in seconds (or None
for indefinite)
mechs (~gssapi.raw.types.MechType): the desired mechanisms for which
the credentials should work (or None for the default set)
usage (str): usage type for credentials. Possible values:
'initiate' (default), 'accept', 'both' (failsafe).
Returns:
AcquireCredResult: the resulting credentials, the actual mechanisms
with which they may be used, and their actual lifetime in seconds (or
None for indefinite or not supported)
Raises:
~gssapi.exceptions.GSSError
