Add support for certificate_content and private_key_content parameters

 ```
 
+For use cases where you want to fetch the certificate data from a secure store, like vault, you can use the `_content` attributes. Here is an example:
+
+```puppet
+java_ks { 'broker.example.com:/etc/activemq/broker.ks':
+  ensure              => latest,
+  certificate_content => $certificate_data_fetched_from_secure_store,
+  private_key_content => $private_key_data_fetched_from_secure_store
+  password            => 'albatros',
+  password_fail_reset => true,
+}
+```
+
+We recommend using the data type `Senstive` for the attributes `certificate_content` and `private_key_content`. But These attributes also support a regular `String` data type. The `_content` attributes are mutual exclusive with their file-based variants.
+
+
 You can also use Hiera by passing params to the java_ks::config class:
 
 ```yaml
