[JENKINS-73495] Credentials plugin marked not compatible with 2.452.3

[jenkins-infra-bot]

Having accidentally upgraded one of our systems to 2.452.3 LTS before updating the Credentials plugin, we're suddenly faced with being unable to do so because it's not marked as compatible. I'm trying to figure out if this is simply an oversight in the plugin or if there really is a compatibility issue that's going to bite us on our other systems as they are updated to 2.452.3 LTS.

  The warning refers to the version of the plugin you have currently installed. It doesn't mean that the plugin is incompatible with 2.452.3. The change that marks the plugin as incompatible with previous version is Remove FileOnMasterKeyStroreSource and SECURITY-1322 migration #540 it is unlikely that you're affected by this

  The error should be clearer then. Perhaps it should say:
  
  Warning: The new version of this plugin is marked as incompatible with the installed version of the plugin. 
  
   
  
  I read it as "incompatible with the installed version of Jenkins"
