Add an agent API variant for PSK passphrase requests that allows the agent to tell IWD whether the passphrase should be persisted in the network profile. This is needed by NetworkManager's IWD backend for profiles where the Wi-Fi PSK is stored as an agent-owned or not-saved secret. In those cases NetworkManager can provide the passphrase for the current connection attempt, but IWD should not save it into /var/lib/iwd/*.psk. The new RequestPassphraseWithOptions method returns the passphrase plus an options dictionary. Currently the only option is Store. If Store is false, IWD uses the passphrase for the current connection attempt but does not write PSK secrets back to the profile. The method falls back to RequestPassphrase for older agents.
