Is there a way to add an additional properties file to the startup of Apache
Tomcat, so that server.xml and context.xml can reference the values like we do
with catalina.properties?
For instance:
application.properties:
my.user=foo
my.password=bar
context.xml:
…
<Resource … " type="javax.sql.DataSource" … username="${my.user}"
password="${my.password}” …
/>

You can use environment variables (and setenv.sh/.bat). Example:
Set your environment variable:
> export USER_NAME=user1
Modify / create setenv.sh:
JAVA_OPTS=-Dcustom_user_name=${USER_NAME}
Modify your context.xml:
[...] <Resource … " type="javax.sql.DataSource" …
username="${custom_user_name}" [...]
I didn't test it, but it should work like this.
