There is only a single Ceph user and we could create a ceph.conf file
with the 'keyring' option set. It was just not required in the past,
because we specified 'keyring' via '-drive' directly, so having this
option would be more convenient for us.

In short: we can still make it work on our side if there is no interest
in adding this option in the QAPI.
