Implement secure credential management for database connections

- Introduced SecureCredentialManager for encrypted storage of sensitive database credentials, including passwords and connection strings.
- Updated DatabaseConnectionManager to utilize secure credential storage, ensuring plaintext credentials are never saved.
- Added methods for securely storing, retrieving, updating, and deleting credentials, enhancing security and compliance.
- Implemented credential migration for existing connections to transition from plaintext to secure storage.
- Enhanced connection management with features for masked credentials and secure access, improving overall security posture.
