Description

Description: Review all classes in the org.wildfly.security.hashicorp.vault package and extract hardcoded string literals to a shared constants class.

Known examples:

Engine type strings: "KVv1", "KVv2" (VaultAlias lines 86, 108) Default mount path: "secret" (VaultAlias line 108) Suggested approach: Create a package-private constants class to hold shared string values used across the package. Review all classes for similar patterns and consolidate where appropriate.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Review the VaultAlias class and other classes in the org.wildfly.security.hashicorp.vault package for hardcoded string literals. Create a package private constants class and replace all occurrences with references to that class.
