Mask sensitive information from being displayed in the Runbook activity details output for automations

Security risk

Our customer has highlighted a security risk within our Runbook Automation application.

The output from automations when running an automated or semi-automated runbook displays sensitive information in the RBA UI

e.g. A runbook action calls a HTTP API and retrieves a sensitive token, which will be used in a subsequent call/step of the runbook

The complaint is that the output of the first action i.e. the token (used for creating the connection to an endpoint) is shown in the UI.

We need to add support for marking a response as sensitive and therefore hiding it from the runbook UI
