Andrea Longo 4c735072f7 Move reference docs for mc admin idp commands to mc idp (#873)
All the `mc admin idp *` commands have been renamed `mc idp *`.
Deprecate everything under `mc admin idp` and create pages for their new
names in the MinIO Client section.

Affects the following commands and subcommands;
* `mc admin idp ldap`
* `mc admin idp openid`
*  `mc admin idp ldap policy`

The new pages maintain the existing content and page structure. New
pages for each subcommand are out of scope for this PR.

Partly addresses https://github.com/minio/docs/issues/859 and
https://github.com/minio/docs/issues/866

.. mc:: mc admin user add
Syntax
------

The :mc:`mc admin user add` command adds a new :ref:`MinIO user <minio-internal-idp>` to the target MinIO deployment.
.. end-mc-admin-user-add-desc
To manage external Identity Provider users, see :mc:`OIDC <mc idp openid>` or :mc:`AD/LDAP <mc idp ldap>`.
.. tab-set::
.. tab-item:: EXAMPLE
The following command creates a new user ``newuser`` on the ``myminio`` MinIO deployment:
.. code-block:: shell
:class: copyable
mc admin user add myminio newuser newusersecret
.. tab-item:: SYNTAX
The command has the following syntax:
.. code-block:: shell
:class: copyable
mc [GLOBALFLAGS] admin user add \
ALIAS \
ACCESSKEY \
SECRETKEY
.. include:: /includes/common-minio-mc.rst
:start-after: start-minio-syntax
:end-before: end-minio-syntax
Parameters
~~~~~~~~~~
.. mc-cmd:: ACCESSKEY
:required:
The access key that uniquely identifies the new user, similar to a username.
.. mc-cmd:: ALIAS
:required:
The :mc-cmd:`alias <mc alias>` of a configured MinIO deployment on which to create the new user.
.. mc-cmd:: SECRETKEY
:required:
The secret key for the new user. Consider the following guidance when creating a secret key:
- The key should be *unique*
- The key should be *long* (Greater than 12 characters)
- The key should be *complex* (A mixture of characters, numerals, and symbols)

Example
-------
Create a New User
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Use :mc-cmd:`mc admin user add` to create a user on a MinIO deployment:
.. code-block:: shell
:class: copyable
mc admin user add ALIAS ACCESSKEY SECRETKEY
- Replace :mc-cmd:`ALIAS <mc admin user add ALIAS>` with the :mc-cmd:`alias <mc alias>` of the MinIO deployment.
- Replace :mc-cmd:`ACCESSKEY <mc admin user add ACCESSKEY>` with the access key for the user.
- Replace :mc-cmd:`SECRETKEY <mc admin user add SECRETKEY>` with the secret key for the user.
MinIO *does not* provide any method for retrieving the secret key once set.
Specify a unique, random, and long string for both the ``ACCESSKEY`` and ``SECRETKEY``.
Your organization may have specific internal or regulatory requirements around generating values for use with access or secret keys.
Behavior
--------
New Users Have No Default Policies
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Newly created users have *no* policies by default and therefore cannot perform any operations on the MinIO deployment.
To configure a user's assigned policies, you can do either or both of the following:
- Use :mc-cmd:`mc admin policy attach` to associate one or more policies to the user.
- Use :mc-cmd:`mc admin group add` to associate the user to the group.
Users inherit any policies assigned to the group.
For more information on MinIO users and groups, see :ref:`minio-users` and :ref:`minio-groups`.
For more information on MinIO policies, see :ref:`MinIO Policy Based Access Control <minio-policy>`.
