Validation error on account name & account key parameters

[derekbekoe]

Set account name but not key.

$ export AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT=mystorageaccount

After running $ az storage blob list -c vhds, I expect an error saying storage key not specified or similar but instead, I get the following.

$ az storage blob list -c vhds

az storage blob list: error: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'id'

The bug is in _validators.py, acc_id = next((x for x in scf.storage_accounts.list() if x.name == n.account_name), None).id.

If n.account_name isn't in the storage accounts list, the iterator will return None and so 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'id'

Derek Bekoe (@derekbekoe) in this case you shouldn't get an error (unless the storage account doesn't actually exist). It is trying to retrieve the key for you.
