Description

As part of SDK startup, it will:

Fetch the discovery document
Make a call to a new "services" endpoint eg /arvados/v1/config/services
The API server / controller determines if the client is "internal" or "external" based on source IP address
The services endpoint returns the "Services" and "Volumes" portion of the public exported config with the preferred endpoints filled in for "ExternalURL" and "AccessViaHosts".
SDK uses returned URLs in Services list to communicate with Arvados components, eg Controller, Websockets
Use Volumes and AccessViaHosts to determine whether to contact keepstore directly or use keepproxy. (For external clients, AccessViaHosts URL == keepproxy URL?)
