Preflight checklist

Describe the background of your feature request

As of today, there is a need to restart heimdall each time new TLS server or client certificates were updated. This approach is secure and convenient in most cases. If however, heimdall is used as a proxy and the communication between the client and the upstream service happen via WebSockets or other long lasting streaming connections, restarting of heimdall can lead to cascading errors.

Describe your idea

To make it more convenient, it would be helpful to let heimdall react on secret rotation and let it use new updated secrets.

Are there any workarounds or alternatives?

Restart heimdall
