DeviceCode authentication doesn't work

[joshdavari]

In createAzureContext(), authType is passed to azureAuthenticate() as part of the azureActiveContext parameter. azureAuthenticate() also has an authType parameter that defaults to "ClientCredential", which is passed to azureAuthenticateOnAuthType(). azureAuthenticateOnAuthType() then ignores whatever value was passed to createAzureContext and will always use "ClientCredential".

Consider using the AzureR family instead of AzureSMR; this includes packages for interacting with storage, containers, VMs, and more. In particular, authentication is handled by AzureAuth which supports device code as well as several other methods.
