Description

Today to rotate credentials using external connections you need to:
- Pause the job
- drop the external connection
- recreate the external connection with the same name
- unpause the job

We should (1) let you [alter an external connection](https://github.com/cockroachdb/cockroach/issues/98610) and (2) allow you to add a secondary key that will be tried once the first one fails (so you don't have to add the new key _after_ it stops be useful
