Mongo: admin user and password from files vs environment vars

[jerradpatch]

I see that you use the environment vars (below) to set the root user at startup. Is it possible to load those using a file?

MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME
MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD

This would allow docker swarm users to pass these variables via docker secrets.

Something like https://github.com/docker-library/docs/tree/master/mongo#docker-secrets?
