Tailscale app: say when a VPN's passwords aren't saved - #57

… them BFS stores neither its password nor its IPsec key (flags 2, ask every time) and the desktop has no NetworkManager secret agent, so connecting from the app failed with "No agents were available". The VPN card now says so and opens nm-connection-editor for that connection; a connect that fails for missing secrets says why and opens it too.

Owner report: the VPN "didn't save my passwords".
Cause: BFS (L2TP/IPsec) has
password-flags = 2andipsec-psk-flags = 2, which means "ask every time, never store". This desktop also runs no NetworkManager secret agent, sonmcli connection upfrom the app fails with "No agents were available" (NetworkManager log, 09:49).*-flagsentries fromvpn.data(flags only, no secrets). When a secret is never stored, it shows a warning and a Save Passwords… button that opensnm-connection-editor --edit <uuid>.Checked: tests (new flag-parsing cases), clippy clean, fixture render, and a render against the real BFS connection (warning shown). Installed and restarted locally.
