_connect_kwargs(hide_secrets = True) is used to log the connection
parameters when a connection fails, without leaking the password. The
filtered dictionary is built before the password is replaced with
'<hidden>', and the replacement is applied to the local kwargs
dictionary afterwards, after the filtered copy has already been made.
The dictionary that ends up in the log therefore still contains the
real password.
Hide the password before building the filtered dictionary.
