Use the `circleci policy test` CLI command without authenticating first.

Adam Harvey

This is a feature request to allow running specific CLI commands without authenticating.

Currently, when using the CircleCI CLI with your config, you can workaround this. It would be useful if this was allowed by default instead of having to use a workaround.

As a workaround for this issue, a CI pipeline can create a fake token:

mkdir -p ~/.circleci
echo "token: fake_token" >> ~/.circleci/cli.yml
circleci policy test policies/ --verbose --format junit > test_results/config_policy_tests.xml
