Restore and harden credential masking for /targets (#1698)

This patch re-enables masking with a few backend changes
- Add mask_url() using url based parsing
- Apply consistent masking across Slack, Webhook, and AlertManager types.
- Add strict unit tests enforcing that secrets never hit the serializer.
