Add capability to set environment variables from K8s secrets from APIConnectCluster

It seems that the APIConnectCluster and AnalyticsCluster CRs do not support injecting environment variables from secrets. We can inject environment variables, just not from secrets. We are using logstash to offload analytics data. The endpoint tha...
