This only affects plugin developers using the cmk.password_store plug-in API. Previously, when using the resolve_secret_option helper, developers had to replace hyphens by underscores themselves before passing the option name. This is now done inside the helper, the option name can be passed as is. Providing this extra convenience is more in line with the spirit of this function.

Thanks to @lbuhleie for this contribution.
