In my experience, 90% of my configuration is about setting keys and secrets. This PR proposes to add that to the use cases.

Oh hey there @rikhuijzer how timely! We were just talking about this over here: https://github.com/WebAssembly/wasi-runtime-config/pull/10#discussion_r1585287952

Essentially I think people currently use it for both (in wasmCloud we're currently using it for config data and for secrets). But there is an argument to be made that we should also have a secrets interface that lets us distinguish between config data and data that should be kept secret

Ah like GitHub's secrets vs plain env vars. Makes sense. I'll close then for now since the discussion is still ongoing 👍
