feat: share env files as encrypted links

S → f on a repo, an env file or a key in one copies a
lazysecrets://share link holding the env files, encrypted (age) with
a secret's value: whoever can read that secret can open it. The key is
share.key in the repo's .lazysecrets.yaml, else in the config, else
picked when sharing; on Azure the link pins its version. Opening one
says what it holds, decrypts when asked, and saves the files in the
clone of the repo (or a folder chosen), replacing existing ones only
when asked. lazysecrets share prints a link from the command line.

that version). `S` opens the share menu:
- secrets: the link (`o`), the plain Key Vault URL (`u`), the config
reference (`y`) or the web page (`b`)
reference (`y`) or the web page (`b`); in an env file, also the file as
an [encrypted link](#sharing-env-files) (`f`)
- vaults and scopes: a link (`o`), a link that opens on the current tab
(`t`), the plain vault URL (`u`) or the web page (`b`)
- subscriptions and workspaces: a link (`o`) or the web page (`b`)
- repos and env files: also their env files as an
[encrypted link](#sharing-env-files) (`f`)
## Sharing env files
`.env` files usually live only on your machine. `S` → `f` shares them as
an encrypted link, on a repo (all its plain env files), an env file, or a
key in one (its file):
```
lazysecrets://share/AQ…
```
The files are encrypted with a secret's value, so whoever can read that
secret (in Key Vault, Databricks or a repo's SOPS file) can open the link,
and nobody else: who may open it is up to the vault's access, as for
everything else. Make a secret for it once, random and at least 16
characters:
```sh
az keyvault secret set --vault-name kv-team --name env-share --value "$(openssl rand -base64 32)"
```
and name it in the repo's `.lazysecrets.yaml` (committed: the whole team
uses it) or your config (for repos that don't name one), or pick one when
sharing:
```yaml
share:
key: lazysecrets://azure/kv-team.vault.azure.net/secrets/env-share
```
On the command line, `lazysecrets share [--key <link>] <env file>...`
prints the link.
Opening a share link says which repo it's from, how many files and which
secret it's encrypted with, and decrypts only when asked: lazysecrets
reads the secret with your access, then shows where each file goes in
your clone of the repo (or asks for a folder, if it isn't here), which
ones would replace a file there and which ones git doesn't ignore. It
saves them all, only the new ones, or none. New files are readable by you
only.
A link holds the files' paths and contents encrypted ([age](https://age-encryption.org),
the secret's value as passphrase); the repo, the secret and the number of
files are in the clear. Links stay under 16 KB, which fits chat and
tickets.
A link stays readable as long as its secret is. On Azure it's pinned to
the secret's version, so adding a new version (rotating) doesn't break
old links, and disabling the old version, or taking away someone's
access, shuts them out; Databricks secrets have no versions, so changing
the value breaks every old link. Whoever has read the secret's value
before can decrypt links made with it without asking the vault, so rotate
it now and then: new links use the newest version.
