4c57352450 Improve sensitive config variable masking and editing UX (#19578)
## Summary
This PR enhances the handling of sensitive configuration variables by
improving masking logic and user experience when editing them. It adds
metadata-aware masking for dynamically marked sensitive variables and
clears sensitive values when entering edit mode.

## Key Changes

- **Backend masking improvements**: Updated `maskSensitiveValue()` to
accept metadata parameter, enabling masking of variables marked as
sensitive via metadata (not just predefined masking config). Sensitive
non-string values are masked as `********`.

- **Edit mode UX**: When editing a sensitive variable, the value field
is now cleared on entering edit mode to prevent exposing masked values
and ensure users intentionally provide new secret values.

- **Form state tracking**: Enhanced `useConfigVariableForm()` hook to
accept an `isEditing` parameter and properly track value changes for
sensitive variables during edit operations.

- **Input placeholder**: Updated placeholder text for sensitive variable
inputs to show `Enter a new secret value` instead of the generic
database storage message, providing clearer intent to users.

## Implementation Details

- The `maskSensitiveValue()` method now checks both predefined masking
configurations and runtime metadata to determine if a value should be
masked
- Sensitive string values use LAST_N_CHARS strategy (4 characters),
while non-string values are masked uniformly
- The form's `hasValueChanged` flag is set to true when editing
sensitive variables to ensure proper validation and submission handling
