Stop array-item secrets being wiped, and logging them

Three review findings from #485 that I missed when addressing that PR;
it has since merged, so they land here.

1. Array-item secrets destroyed by any unrelated save (data loss).

remove_empty_secrets recursed into dicts but let a list fall through to
the scalar branch and kept it verbatim. Lists merge by *replacement*, so
the blanks the masked form posts back went straight over the stored
array:

    stored   [{"name":"a","token":"REAL-A"}, {"name":"b","token":"REAL-B"}]
    posted   [{"name":"a","token":""},       {"name":"b","token":""}]
    merged   [{"name":"a","token":""},       {"name":"b","token":""}]
             -> both credentials gone

Same failure as the scalar api_key case fixed earlier, one container
deeper. Lists now prune element-wise, and a list with nothing real in it
is dropped so the stored one is left alone. Where one entry does change,
the new merge_secrets merges by index instead of replacing.

Two details the first attempt got wrong, both caught by existing tests:

- An emptied dict item must stay {}, not None. ConfigManager's
  _strip_secrets_recursive treats a secrets list as *parallel* to the
  regular one ({} = "item i has no secrets"); a None makes it stop
  looking parallel, and it then drops the whole key from the main config
  -- silently deleting the items' non-secret fields too.
- The incoming list's length wins. The regular config's list is
  authoritative about how many items exist, so preserving surplus stored
  entries would let the two fall out of step and make deleting an entry
  impossible.

2. Submitted credentials written to the journal (security).

save_plugin_config logged `Full config: {plugin_config}` at INFO and
`Config that failed: {plugin_config}` at ERROR. Both run before
separate_secrets, so plugin_config still held the values just typed into
the form. Now keys only. Swept the rest of web_interface/ and src/ for
the same shape -- these were the only two.

3. Restart banner kept stale wording.

showRestartPending() cleared the stored custom text but left the DOM
element alone, so a config save could show the previous update's
message. The default is read back from the server-rendered copy rather
than duplicated in JS, so the template stays the one owner of the string.

Verified: 556 passed, 1 skipped across the web suite. Mutation-checked --
reverting api_v3 fails the logging guard and the array-merge test;
reverting either half of the secret_helpers change fails the unit tests.
New end-to-end coverage drives the real endpoint, not just the helpers.
