"Delete host" modal: Add link for "revoke the host's enroll secret"
Goal
As a user trying to delete a host, I want to know how I can revoke the host's enroll secret.

How?
- [ ] Make sure a doc page section or FAQ answer exists in the Fleet docs about this
- [ ] Consider rephrasing to "revoke the enroll secret used by this host"
- [ ] Add link to
fleetdm.com/docs/…pointed at the relevant doc page section or FAQ answer

When doing this, we need to be careful to communicate that revoking the enroll secret may effect any other host that uses the same enroll secret.
Should we suggest revoking that other id instead of the enroll secret?
@mikermcneil what do you mean by "that other id"? I think you're probably referring to the "node key" which is what gets revoked if someone confirms the delete here. But as long as the host is still online and the "enroll secret" is still valid, it will just exchange the enroll secret for a new node key.
Should "or revoke the host's enroll secret" be removed from this modal on the host details page? This copy is different from the manage host page delete modal below:
I think there was a discussion that we do not keep track of what secret a host used to enroll so it would be difficult to tell the user to delete that host's enroll secret.
