Description Max Harper

Build Identifier: 7.4.5

I would like to configure a SslContextFactory with a keystore that's stored in a database.  Therefore, I cannot (easily) use the setKeystore(String) method, which assumes a path on the file system.  On the other hand, it works great to use the setKeystoreInputStream method, but that's been deprecated.

Depending on the "correct" solution, one of the following would be useful:
1. Document the preferred code for this situation path near the @deprecated annotation
2. De-deprecate this method.

the setKeyStore(KeyStore) method has been made to work correctly.
