The LDAP bind password was the only credential still stored in clear text.
CalendarSource, SmtpConfig, DkvModuleConfig and TenderEmailConfig have been
AES-256-GCM encrypted for a while; LDAP simply predated the encryption service
and was never brought along.
Hashing is not an option here: Tessera has to replay this password to bind
against the directory, so it must stay recoverable. Encryption at rest covers
the case a hash cannot help with either way -- a database dump or backup
leaving the host without the key, which lives in the application environment.
It does not protect against a compromised host, and does not pretend to.
Reuses CalendarCryptoService, the same provider SettingsModule, DkvModule and
TendersModule already inject, rather than introducing a second crypto path.
The name is a historical accident and is noted as such in LdapModule; renaming
it touches five modules and belongs in its own change.
Decryption sits in getConfig()/getAllActiveConfigs(), the two methods every
consumer already goes through, so callers keep reading a plain `bindPassword`
and the controller keeps masking it to '********' in responses.
The migration only renames the column -- SQL cannot encrypt, since the key is
not in the database. An idempotent bootstrap backfill encrypts rows written
before this change, and until it has run the read path passes a legacy
plaintext value through unchanged so the sync does not break in that window.
A failed decrypt throws rather than returning null: a wrong key must not read
as "no password configured" and silently turn an authenticated bind into an
anonymous one.
