Fingerprint Privilege Component
Retrieves the fingerprint computed from the privilege metadata of the component element corresponding to componentId. The fingerprint provides clients an efficient way to check if the metadata for a particular component has been modified on the server. The client can do this by comparing the result of this operation with the fingerprint returned in the result of Component.get.
