The -drive syntax should remain unchanged (that's an absolute must for
libvirt).  But the QMP syntax being an array of methods sounds best to
me, and I think password-secret should be part of the array.  So my vote
would be for:

{ "driver": "rbd", "image": "foo",
  "auth": [ { "type": "cephx", "password-secret": "sec0" },
            { "type": "none" } ],
  "pool": "bar" }

It makes mapping -drive arguments into QMP form a bit trickier, but the
QMP form is then easily extensible if we add another auth method down
the road.
