[JENKINS-61812] Read-only f:password field always shows "N/A"

The global Mailer plugin configuration, password parameters in the job configuration, all show "N/A" to users with SystemRead or ExtendedRead respectively in Jenkins 2.229.

It is unclear to me why, perhaps the mismatch of

jenkins/core/src/main/resources/lib/form/password.jelly

Line 66 in 9134ff1

<j:when test="${value}"><span class="jenkins-readonly">****</span></j:when>

and

jenkins/core/src/main/resources/lib/form/password.jelly

Line 76 in 9134ff1

    
           <j:set var="value" value="${h.getPasswordValue(attrs.value ?: instance[attrs.field])}"/>

?
