Reload license file Enterprise
When the :subsystem URL parameter is specified as license, Vault re-reads
the license file if the license was provided using the license_path configuration
option or the VAULT_LICENSE_PATH environment variable. The updated license is
applied to Vault, and Vault will then enable/disable licensed features if the features
of the given license are different from those of the license Vault is currently using.
