LTS-5452: README step to set credentials as env vars - #26
Adds a Set your credentials step to the README. It covers exporting BROWSERSTACK_USERNAME / BROWSERSTACK_ACCESS_KEY in the shell (macOS/Linux and PowerShell) and never committing them. The CLI reads both from the environment.
Also rewords the credentials comment in browserstack-load.yml, which said "Add your BrowserStack userName and accessKey here". It now says the env vars override the placeholders and not to paste a real key into the file. This matches the Selenium sample's configs.
Asked for in BrowserStack Security's retest of LTS-5452: the sample READMEs had no step for setting credentials.
Expanded setup guidance with macOS/Linux and PowerShell commands for setting BrowserStack credentials, noting they apply only to the current terminal session.
Clarified that environment variables override YAML placeholders and added guidance on checking credentials after authentication errors, keeping them out of version control, and regenerating exposed keys.

Walkthrough
The README now links to credential instructions for macOS/Linux shells and PowerShell. It explains that environment variables override YAML placeholders, apply to the current terminal session, and should not be committed. The YAML comment also documents the override and warns against committing a real access key.

- Line 20: Update both shell examples that set BROWSERSTACK_ACCESS_KEY to obtain
the key through a silent interactive prompt or secret manager, rather than
having users type the secret directly into a command recorded in shell history.

Hidden prompt for the access key so it stays out of bash/zsh and
PSReadLine history (CodeRabbit); note the variables last for the current
session and how to spot an unset one; per-repo fixes from the code review.

Prompt and export on one line, so pasting the block can't feed the export line to read. Robot: per-OS signature check, .gitignore for the CLI binary. Selenium: ignore browserstack-cli.exe.

zsh (macOS default) has interactive_comments off, so pasted '#' lines printed errors; the labels now sit outside the sh fences. The placement note names browserstack-cli.exe for Windows.
