Fixing issue #35530: Password Leak in Log Messages (#35584)

The Gitea codebase was logging `Elasticsearch` and `Meilisearch`
connection strings directly to log files without sanitizing them. Since
connection strings often contain credentials in the format
`protocol://username:password@host:port`, this resulted in passwords
being exposed in plain text in log output.

Fix:
- wrapped all instances of setting.Indexer.RepoConnStr and
setting.Indexer.IssueConnStr with the `util.SanitizeCredentialURLs()`
function before logging them.

Fixes: #35530
