The sasl_getopt_t() function allows a SASL configuration to be encapsulated in the caller's configuration system. Some implementations may
use default configuration file(s) if this function is omitted. Configuration items are arbitrary strings and are plug-in specific.

unchanged if option is not found.
len The length of result. The value of result can be NULL.
RETURN VALUES
Like other SASL callback functions, sasl_getopt_t() returns an integer that corresponds to a SASL error code. See <sasl.h> for a complete
list of SASL error codes.
