[report,collect] Add env var and prompt options for encryption
Adds a new `--encrypt` option that may be used in place of the existing encrypt-related options. If used alongside `--batch`, this new option will cause sos to set encryption options based on the `SOSENCRYPTKEY` or `SOSENCRYPTPASS` environment variables. This allows users to leverage this functionality without potentially leaking the values into `ps`-like output inside the archive. If `--batch` is not used, then this option prompts the user to select the type of method to use and then provide the value in-line, or to use the env var option. Signed-off-by: Jake Hunsaker <jhunsake@redhat.com>
