  **Fixed** an issue where using `ISTIO_MUTUAL` TLS mode in Gateways while also setting `credentialName` cause mutual TLS to not be configured.
  This configuration is now rejected, as `ISTIO_MUTUAL` is intended to be used without `credentialName` set.
  The old behavior can be retaind by configuring the `PILOT_ENABLE_LEGACY_ISTIO_MUTUAL_CREDENTIAL_NAME=true` environment variable in Istiod.
