M Hickford 0ce02e2fec credential/libsecret: store new attributes
d208bfd (credential: new attribute password_expiry_utc, 2023-02-18)
and a5c76569e7 (credential: new attribute oauth_refresh_token)
introduced new credential attributes.

libsecret assumes attribute values are non-confidential and
unchanging, so we encode the new attributes in the secret, separated by
newline:

    hunter2
    password_expiry_utc=1684189401
    oauth_refresh_token=xyzzy

This is extensible and backwards compatible. The credential protocol
already assumes that attribute values do not contain newlines.

Alternatives considered: store password_expiry_utc in a libsecret
attribute. This has the problem that libsecret creates new items
rather than overwrites when attribute values change.
