Currently, there's no information about what cc_username and cc_password stand for. Without knowing the context, it's difficult to search for and figure out what they mean. This PR adds a small reference to contextualize the terms.

I'd leave this part out. If one does not have SCC credentials, at this point it is just not possible to provision SLE based VMs, while openSUSE or other freely available distros will work fine.

Or what did you have in mind exactly with this point?

I'm not familiar with how users outside the organization may use the tool, so I wanted to cover both cases just to be sure based on the discussions I had with Dario. If you think the second line doesn't have practical value, I'll remove that bit.
