Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

As a Zowe Explorer user, there isn't a way for me to easily manage all my secure credentials in one place.

Describe the solution you'd like

A webview with a tabular display of secure fields would be nice. For each secure field, it could display its JSON path and a text box to enter a new value.

For security reasons the webview should not show credential values - text boxes could show * characters to mask values. We could also consider an option to unlock the keyring and show values like the Linux Keychain app.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Currently it is possible to update credentials for individual profiles in ZE by right-clicking them, selecting "Manage Profile" and "Update Credentials". However this action is limited to profiles in one of the ZE trees.

Updating credentials in bulk can be accomplished with the Zowe CLI command zowe config secure but not directly from ZE. Also the CLI command is limited to only global config or project config and can't handle both at once.

Additional context

Related to zowe/zowe-cli#2206
