Simplify human usage of secret-set-value by adding --interactive which
will read the value of the secret from the terminal.

Set the value associated with *secret* (specified by its UUID) to the value
Base64-encoded value *base64* or Base-64-encoded contents of file named
*filename*. Using the *--plain* flag is together with *--file* allows to use
the file contents directly as the secret value.
-Note that *--file* and *base64* options are mutually exclusive.
+If *--interactive* flag is used the secret value is read as a password from the
+terminal.
+
+Note that *--file*, *--interactive* and *base64* options are mutually exclusive.
Passing secrets via the *base64* option on command line is INSECURE and
deprecated. Use the *--file* option instead.
