Removes one or more secrets.
+`podman secret rm` is safe to use on secrets that are in use by a container.
+The created container will still have access to the secret data because secrets are
+copied and mounted into the container when a container is created. If a secret is deleted and
+another secret is created with the same name, the secret inside the container will not change;
+the old secret value will still remain.
