Use keyring module in @zowe/secrets-for-zowe-sdk as replacement for node-keytar

[traeok]

This issue refers to the R&D for using keytar-rs in place of node-keytar as node-keytar is no longer maintained.

Update: keytar-rs is now the keyring module in @zowe/secrets-for-zowe-sdk: see here.

Action items:

• Research electron-rebuild for preparing keytar-rs for Electron environments (might not be needed)
• Incorporate keytar-rs in imperative and CLI: see keytar-rs branch for updates
  • Implementation
  • Fix unit tests in CLI and imperative
  • Fix integration tests in imperative
  • Merge into codebase as "secrets SDK"
    • Update CLI repo w/ secrets SDK package
      • Adjust workflows to build secrets SDK on-demand
      • Wait for reviews; merge and publish once complete
    • Update imperative w/ secrets SDK
    • Update ZE w/ secrets SDK
• Investigate use of keytar-rs in Zowe Explorer: see keytar-rs branch for updates
• Test keytar-rs usage in CLI and Zowe Explorer; verify that credential management still works as-is
  • zowe config secure --gc to update/store user credentials in the CLI
    • Windows
    • macOS
    • Linux
  • setPassword in local environment (using "Update Credentials")
    • Windows
