Update Galaxy docs to use "token" rather than "API key" (#66644)
We have called an API token many things. I changed the command line argument to
"--token", so now I'm unifying the documentation. I looked at both Galaxy and
Automation Hub and Galaxy is the only place that still uses the term "API Key",
which it could be argued should change.
