Clarify our security model for sensitive connection information (#54088)
The #53973 introduced a change in the model of handling of the
sensitive connection data in the Airlfow UI. Previoiusly our agreed
model included capability of reading sensitive data bu the users who
have Connection Configuraiton role. However in 3.0.4 we changeed the
model so that those users have "write-only" access - they can write
the sensitive data, but they cannot read the data via API or the UI
once it is written. WHile not a security vulnerability on it's own,
it's a security improvement that allows to mitigate some scenarios,
especially when connection editing user credentials are stolen.
This PR clarifies the model and properly communicates it to the users
clearly indicating the difference implemented in 3.0.4 and the model
of our security and clearly explaining that before 3.0.4 that was a
delibearate choice of the model that the connection editing users
had access to the sensitive data.
