Added an OpenVPN configuration which requires MFA with a saved password.
Attempting to connect asked for authenticator code and the dialogue was
incorrectly filled in with the saved password. Reconnecting required me
to re-enter the password as the authenticator code had been incorrectly
saved as the password. So the bug is verified.

Plan 1:
Using the same VPN configuration, the password is saved correctly. The
authenticator code dialogue is not incorrectly populated by the saved
password, and it does not overwrite the credentials. Reconnecting only
prompts for a new authenticator code, the saved password continues to
work.
Plan 2:
Added a new VPN configuration which did not require MFA. Connecting and
reconnecting still works as expected, the password remains cached and
there is no prompt for MFA.
The fix is verified.
