We already looked for the PKI credentials in the credential store, but failed to approve it on success. Meaning, the PKI certificate password was never stored and git would request it on every connection to the remote. Let's complete the chain by storing the certificate password on success.
Likewise, we also need to reject the credential when there is a failure. Curl appears to report client-related certificate issues are reported with the CURLE_SSL_CERTPROBLEM error. This includes not only a bad password, but potentially other client certificate related problems. Since we cannot get more information from curl, we'll go ahead and reject the credential upon receiving that error, just to be safe and avoid caching or saving a bad password.
