Prepare certificate for use with VM: keyvault name and resource group are required for az vm secret format

[moshem-pangea]

In "Prepare certificate for use with VM" section: For az vm secret format --secret "$secret" --output json to work, keyvault name and resource group (or keyvault ID, which isn't intuitive, even without resource group) must be added. Otherwise, it'll end up with something like: "ERROR: unable to find vault 'yourVault' in current subscription." Full command should be: vm_secret=$(az vm secret format -s "$secret" --resource-group <YourResourceGroupName> --keyvault $keyvault_name --output json)
