ui: introduce "password-secret" option for SPICE server
Currently when using SPICE the "password" option provides the password in plain text on the command line. This is insecure as it is visible to all processes on the host. As an alternative, the password can be provided separately via the monitor. This introduces a "password-secret" option which lets the password be provided up front. $QEMU --object secret,id=vncsec0,file=passwd.txt \ --spice port=5901,password-secret=vncsec0 Signed-off-by: Daniel P.
