What does this MR do?

What does this MR do and why?

This change adds settings configuration to support the Secure Files mechanism discussed in gitlab#346290 (closed).

The feature is designed to support folks who need a simple way to add binary files to their CI pipelines. The use case I'm focused on is in the code signing process for mobile teams, but this approach has been generalized to support other use cases as well.

This first iteration supports basic API interactions. Future iterations will support direct integration with the GitLab Runner, as well as a UI for file uploads and viewing (discussion here).

I recorded a demo of this feature as well: https://youtu.be/eK3FUskHfdo
