podman secret usability

[jsonn]

Secret management has a number of small but annoying misfeatures:

1. podman secret rm lacks an option to ignore errors from unknown secrets (compare podman container rm)
2. podman secret create should also have an option for just replacing a secret if it already exists (compare podman container create).
3. The check that "-" is not used with a tty for podman secret create is IMO completely bogus and should just be removed. It's perfectly sensible to type a password in when I know that no one is watching over my shoulder and it doesn't apply consistently anyway, since e.g. ssh myhost podman secreat create mysecret - just works fine.

Please open these as three different issues. Interested in opening PRs to fix anyone of them?

[jsonn]

I don't mind looking at it, if there is agreement on the direction.

[rhatdan]

The first two are no brainers. The third one would probably be fine as well, but I would like to have input from @vrothberg and @ashley-cui

[vrothberg]

Thanks for reaching out, @jsonn.

1. That sounds good to me. Adding an --ignore flag can come in handy.
2. A create --replace flag sounds good to me as well and is consistent with other commands.
3. Sounds good as well.

[ashley-cui]

All sound like good ideas to me! Feel free to open PR's on them :)

I can take a look at these if there's no one working on it atm.

[rhatdan]
