Ed Santiago f0e8640755 Man pages: refactor common options: authfile
Refactor the --authfile option.

My suggestion for review:
  1) run hack/markdown-preprocess-review and immediately Ctrl-Q to
     quit out of diffuse, which is completely unusable for this
     many files; then
  2) cd /tmp/markdown-preprocess-review.diffs/authfile
     - this is the directory created by the review script
  3) rm podman-image-sign* podman-log* podman-search.1.md.in
     - because they're essentially identical to podman-create
  4) rm podman-manifest-* podman-push.*
     - because they're 100% identical to podman-kube-play
  5) rm podman-kube-play*
     - because it's apart-from-whitespace identical to podman-build
       (use "wdiff" to confirm)
  6) rm podman-auto-update*
     - because that's the one I chose (hence == zzz-chosen.md)

(You should obviously run your own diff/cmp before rm, to confirm
my assertions about which files are identical).

After all that, you have a manageable number of files which
you can scan, read, diff against zzz-chosen.md, even run diffuse.

This option is IMHO the poster child for why we need this kind
of man page refactoring.

#### **--authfile**=*path*
Path of the authentication file. Default is `${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/containers/auth.json`, which is set using **[podman login](podman-login.1.md)**.
If the authorization state is not found there, `$HOME/.docker/config.json` is checked, which is set using **docker login**.
Note: There is also the option to override the default path of the authentication file by setting the `REGISTRY_AUTH_FILE` environment variable. This can be done with **export REGISTRY_AUTH_FILE=_path_**.
