Document how merchants can roll their own keys #1269

Sometimes merchants inappropriately backup their WordPress database, including options, to public places like GitHub repositories. If done on a site running the Stripe plugin, this can expose Stripe keys. We should document how merchants can rectify this themselves and, if they can't, make it so they can.

Edit: We should document this for merchants using our Stripe Connect Standard platform as well as merchants who are not.

Marking this as High priority because having clear and easy to follow documentation on how to do this is important for merchants if they're in a situation where they need to roll their keys.

@allendav feel free to change the prioritization.
