Hello dear contributors,

As detailed in https://github.com/jenkins-infra/helpdesk/issues/4971, we're 
going to perform an operation, today, on ci.jenkins.io which will:
- Enforce authentication to access build pages/logs with your Jenkins LDAP 
account
- Clean up the user directory, wiping out all settings (API tokens, 
appearance, etc.).

Enforcing authentication comes as a direct consequence of many abusive 
usages from content scrappers in the past weeks (if not months) which are 
threatening the ci.jenkins.io service itself, its usage and also the 
platform. It's the only way to keep ci.jenkins.io running and sustainable 
while allowing the Jenkins infrastructure team not to waste our time on 
playing cat and mouse with script kiddies or careless LLM users.

On the user directory wiping out, it's an opportunity to get rid of 
literally thousands of inactive accounts (older ones are from 2017) and 
avoid putting too much strain on the controller restarts (failed migration 
of user format since 2.528.1).

Thanks for your understanding.

For the Jenkins infra team, 
Damien Duportal
