Do not force operator to remember export API_NAME=authenticator command.
Read a .env file if it is available.
Changed
changedMakefile to export from .env (if available)
changedREADME.md to offer .env alternative to export
Testing
Verify Makefile supports export and .env for API_NAME, in that order.
1. Clone/Open repo.
2. Do **not** run `export API_NAME=authenticator` command.
3. Run `make init_dbs`.
4. Verify **error** occurs (indirectly) because of missing API_NAME.
5. Create an `.env` file with content `export API_NAME=bob`.
6. Run `make init_dbs`.
7. Verify output uses `API_NAME` of **"bob"**.
8. Run `export API_NAME=authenticator`.
9. Run `make init_dbs`.
10. Verify output uses `API_NAME` of **"authenticator"**.
Notes
I read that the "make system is generic and used by multiple Tapis services".
Where is the source of truth for this generic Makefile?
