Phase one of addressing exposed passwords.

[lathama]

Phase one of addressing exposed passwords.

• For https://github.com/odoo/docker/issues/334
• Enable users to see what configuration settings they can/should set for databases
• Prepare for excluding the password from the command which is visible from the host machine.

The problem

lathama@hostsystemnotthedockercontainer: $ ps ax | grep '/bin/odoo'
/usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/odoo --db_host db --db_port 5432 --db_user odoo --db_password odoo

The goal

lathama@hostsystemnotthedockercontainer: $ ps ax | grep '/bin/odoo'
/usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/odoo

Additional, I am in all the CLAs as lathama going back to the beginning if it is needed on this repo.

Note to viewers, the CLI wins over the config file in some cases like db config. Read more at https://github.com/odoo/odoo/blob/17.0/odoo/tools/config.py#L448-L484
