bq. Hrishikesh, I'll add support for both a prompt and ability to pass
credentials to the script. We can document both options.
bq. For better security, I guess this should rather have been

+1 to both the suggestions. Let's not sacrifice security for the sake of
usability. Let users decide what works for them depending on their security
requirements.

> Now that BasicAuthPlugin will be able to work without an AuthorizationPlugin
> (SOLR-8429), it would be sweet to provide a super simple way to "Password
> protect Solr"™ right from the command line:
> {noformat}
> bin/solr basicAuth -adduser -user solr -pass SolrRocks
> {noformat}
> It would take the mystery out of enabling one single password across the
> board. The command would do something like this
> # Check if HTTPS is enabled, and if not, print a friendly warning
> # Check if {{/security.json}} already exists
> ## NO => create one with only plugin class defined
> ## YES => Abort if exists but plugin is not {{BasicAuthPlugin}}
> # Using security REST API, add the new user
