Remove the GNOME Keyring persistent feature

I don’t know myself what it’s good for in Tails, in terms of practical use cases.

Our documentation says that it’s needed to save the passwords of Wi-Fi networks but it’s not true: I deactivated GNOME Keyring and deleted the underlying files and I still autoconnect to my Wi-Fi network. The passwords are saved in the nm-system-connections files.
