Feature request: Storing credentials for private registries in config file

[danmx]

It would be great if PA could store credentials for private registries so we wouldn't have to send them every time we run a scan.

Similar to what K8 Crawler.

@danmx thanks for the feedback. internally we handle this by leveraging a client utility that runs as a k8s cronjob and calls the api on schedule. That utility allows env's to for those creds.

Would something like that be useful?

That would be useful but I want to use PortAuthority for on demand scans (request scan from a cli) or based on registry's events (e.g. image upload).
For this either I'd have to create a proxy that would inject credentials or PA could already store them.
If your utility can work as a http proxy that would probably solve my problem.
