nut-upsd: 'No such file or directory' error when not using docker secrets

In the NUT docker image, if a user chooses not to use Docker secrets, then the following error is emitted on startup:

cat: can't open '/run/secrets/nut-upsd-password': No such file or directory

This error persists even when setting the SECRET environment variable to other values, though the file in the error message changes with the secret.

A user may choose to forgo using Docker secrets, or at least this Docker secret, if using custom configuration files.

Implemented this conditional:

if [ -d /run/secrets ] && [ -s /run/secrets/$SECRET ]; then
  API_PASSWORD=$(cat /run/secrets/$SECRET)
fi

The API_PASSWORD could be set as env variable if not using a secret, or provided in a mounted config file.

How do I set as a variable I do not see that in documentation

Doc is fixed now, thanks. See README.
