KIP-681 — Rename master key in delegation token feature

Discussion Kafka 3.0 Security

Renames the broker config `delegation.token.master.key` to `delegation.token.secret.key` and deprecates the old name while maintaining backward compatibility. The term "master key" uses racially charged terminology; the more neutral "secret key" more accurately describes the config's purpose.
