fix(web): stop /config/main handing out every credential it holds

The endpoint returned the raw config to anyone who could reach the port, and
this web interface has no authentication of any kind. An unauthenticated
request against a live rig returned:

    github.api_token                40 chars
    incoming-packages.ha_token     183 chars
    jellyfin-now-playing.api_key    32 chars
    ledmatrix-weather.api_key       32 chars
    on-air.mqtt_password             8 chars
    youtube.api_key                 20 chars
    youtube-stats.api_key           39 chars

A GitHub token and a Home Assistant long-lived token among them. Anything on
that LAN could read them.

The x-secret masking the plugin config endpoints use does not reach here: this
route never consults a schema, and core keys such as github.api_token have no
schema to carry the marker. Several of the fields above *are* tagged x-secret
in their plugin's schema and were still returned in full, which is what rules
out the schema route as the fix for this endpoint.

Credential-named fields are now blanked. Matching on the name is blunt, and
for a whole-config dump that is the right default: anything named like a
credential should not leave the process, and a new plugin adding a
differently-shaped secret is covered without anyone remembering to tag it.

Blanked rather than removed, and safe to blank: POST /config/main merges into
the freshly loaded config and writes only the keys it was given, so a client
that round-trips this response cannot erase a secret it never saw. The web API
suites confirm it -- 81 passing, unchanged.

On the test that matters: the first version of this suite exercised the two
helpers and nothing else, and reverting the single line that wires the
redactor into the route passed all thirty of them. A property asserted on a
helper is not a property asserted on the endpoint, and it is the endpoint that
is exposed to the network. The added test goes through the view function, and
it does fail on that revert.

This also corrects an earlier claim of mine. I reported that GET /api/v3/config
did not expose these values; that path 404s, so the check proved nothing. The
real route is /config/main and it exposed all of them.
