Nullify blank credentials in the dependency proxy settings
🔭 Context
Follow up of Fix blank values handling in the dependency proxy (!140673 - merged).
Read the context there.
The issue with that MR is that the frontend could send mixed blank values (see #410726 (comment 1717461021)).
The solution here is to convert all blank values to nil either in the frontend or the backend. Given that this is used in a GraphQL endpoint, it's better to do it on the backend side to ensure behavior coherence no matter which client is using the endpoint.
