influx v1 auth

The influx v1 auth subcommands provide authorization management for the InfluxDB 1.x compatibility API.

InfluxDB 2.7 uses API tokens to authorize API requests. The 1.x compatibility API lets clients authenticate with InfluxDB 2.7 using the InfluxDB 1.x convention of username and password.

1.x-compatible authorizations are separate from the credentials used to log into the InfluxDB user interface.
