account information checks from config-operator.sh

[timroster]

Sometimes when using the IBM Cloud CLI, the region is not being set resulting in IC_REGION being empty. This results in rather obscure errors during secret creation like:

error: error validating “STDIN”: error validating data: unknown object type “nil” in Secret.data.region; if you choose to ignore these errors, turn validation off with --validate=false

It would be helpful to do a quick validation of the IC... fields in this script and putting up an error message to help users spot and fix the CLI session configuration issue.

Hey @timroster, thanks for the issue. Briefly looking at the newest script and implementation, it looks like it could still be a problem.

Since it's been a bit, can you confirm this is still an issue?

Just tried here - I'll admit I had to be persuasive on the ibmcloud cli to get the region undefined. But after doing that, I was still able to get the same failure following the README.md steps.

@timroster thanks for re-checking! I've got a PR up now that addresses this for required fields 👍
