 * \par Description:
 * Gets the system default method value for client feature used in cynara-creds.
 *
 * \par Purpose:
 * Functions cynara_creds_dbus_get_client() and cynara_creds_socket_get_client() take a method
 * parameter, which determines a kind of process feature (i.e PID, SMACK label) returned by them.
 * The described function provides implementation for obtaining a system default value
 * for this parameter.
 *
 * \par Typical use case:
 * The function might be called before cynara_creds_dbus_get_client()
 * and cynara_creds_socket_get_client(), when functions shall be invoked with system default
 * value of method parameter.
 *
 * \par Method of function operation:
 * When this function is called for the first time it reads and returns the value of client_default
 * parameter from /etc/cynara/creds.conf file.
 * Returned value is cached so subsequent calls will not consult file again but use cached value.
 * This also means that after the initial call any changes in the file will be ignored for the
 * remaining lifetime of the process.
 *
 * \par Sync (or) Async:
 * This is a synchronous API.
 *
 * \par Thread safety:
 * This function is thread-safe.
 *
 * \param[out] method Placeholder for system default client feature
 *                     (like CLIENT_METHOD_SMACK, CLIENT_METHOD_PID)
 *
 * \return CYNARA_API_SUCCESS on success
 * \return CYNARA_API_CONFIGURATION_ERROR if the configuration file can not be opened or
 *                                        there are errors in configuration file
 * \return CYNARA_API_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there is error in memory allocation
