[Bug 1724689] [NEW] Usability: Service user token requested with no auth raises cryptic exception

 

Public bug reported:

If [service_user]send_service_user_token is requested, but no auth
information is provided in the [service_user] section, the resulting
error is cryptic [1] and doesn't help the user understand what went
wrong.

Note that today this only happens if the conf section is missing the
auth_type option.  But this is a pretty good first indicator that the
admin forgot to populate auth options in general.
