📜 Description

Remember the HTTPS password throughout a sync operation.

💡 Motivation and Context

The current state could be viewed as having just a UI issue (the second prompt is marked with the "Wrong passphrase" error), but since it counts as a retry in our PasswordFinder implementation, this also removes the stored passphrase, which is a bit more of a nuisance. I'm labeling this as backport for that reason, but am not a 100% sure.

💚 How did you test it?

Sync operations succeed with only a single password prompt.

📝 Checklist

• I formatted the code with the IDE's reformat action (Ctrl + Shift + L/Cmd + Shift + L)
• I reviewed submitted code
• I added a CHANGELOG entry if applicable

Was hoping to avoid a v1.11.3 but that's certainly not happening now. Will queue backports and a release tonight. Anything special that needs to go in for F-Droid? Now's the time.

Getting rid of the version name suffix would help, I don't think anything else is needed at this time.

@msfjarvis Could you also test password authentication a bit more before the release? I used https://try.gitea.io for that purpose.

Yeah I'll test it when I do the backports.
