Description
Closes #20973
The current documentation is somewhat ambiguous in that it specifies that secrets are "mounted by default". It's true that secrets have a default mount path under
/run/secrets/<id>
if none is specified, but they are not mounted by default unless specified in the Dockerfile.This PR updates the introduction to the secrets page to put some more emphasis on the fact that using secrets is a two-step process, and requires both passing the secret and mounting it.
