linkding_auth.sh persists ADMIN_USER and ADMIN_PASSWORD when the first admin is
created, and keeps the password in step on later resets of that account, but
linkding.config declared neither — so both writes were no-ops and the WebUI
credentials card never had anything to show. Predates the slot work; it only
became visible once authPersistCfg started warning instead of failing silently.
Added empty rather than RANDOMIZED*, because unlike bookstack or nextcloud
nothing seeds a linkding account at install — the first user is created from the
WebUI. A generated password would name an account that does not exist, and the
card would display a password that cannot log in. Unslotted for the same reason:
the slot number marks a value the installer generates, and this one is written at
runtime by the tool.
No AUTH_PROFILE key: nothing reads it (it exists only in a comment in
auth_adapter.sh), and adding an unread key is what was just cleaned up elsewhere.
