Evaluator services

These are the settings of the shipped evaluator services. Every evaluator also reads the settings common to all plugin services: IDP_ISSUER_URI, IDP_CLAIMS_ROLES_PATH, and SECURITY_AUDIENCE for authentication, PROFILE, and the logging settings. To make an evaluator available, register it in the API service with the RDA JSON transformer as its rdaTransformerId; see Registering plugin services.
