Integration of Vault as general secrets manager

Nephio project does not have a clear way of creds/secrets management. One of the pre-requisites for this was Workload Identity. Now that the workload identity PR is merged, we can start working on the secrets management aspects.

@Prashant Mishra

There was some preliminary work (including demo) done during R4 towards this. There is a demo involving use of Vault as a user for workload identity.

IaC scanning integration

Nephio project primarily deals with Infrastructure and deployment code base. SIG-Security strongly feels that the integration with IaC scanning tool (such as checkov) is needed.
