Kolide API Token Format

Kolide's API tokens have a predictable format

The format for K2 API keys is as follows:

$PREFIX_$VERSION_$SECRET

the $PREFIX_$VERSION is used to allow you to easily recognize Kolide API
keys - this allows code-scanning tools (or manual review) to detect when a
secret has accidentally been committed to your version control system of choice
and need to be rotated.

The value for $PREFIX is currently: k2sk

an example key will look something like: k2sk_v1_A2UYhW7OPt2jKKLqmFcaGNK7
