shared/ask-password-api: show "(press TAB for no echo)"

For #8495: it is arguably useful to not show the length of the password
in public spaces. It is possible to press TAB or BS to cancel the asterisks,
but this is not very discoverable. Let's make it discoverable by showing
a message (in gray). The message is "erased" after the first character
is entered.
