[FEATURE] Opt-in automatic secret-agent re-registration after NetworkManager restart #500

Description

@cachebag

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
SecretAgentHandle::reregister()` currently requires each NMRS consumer to detect NetworkManager restarts, wait for the new D-Bus owner to become available, and retry registration as needed.

Describe the solution you'd like
Add an opt-in SecretAgentBuilder recovery policy that:

  • watches org.freedesktop.NetworkManager D-Bus owner changes;
  • re-registers only after a new owner is present;
  • retries failed registration with bounded backoff during NM startup;
  • stops recovery when the handle is unregistered or dropped;
  • reports recovery failures through an exposed event/error mechanism.
