QA: Change CI value to something that can be masked

Thong Kuah requested to merge fix_qa_auto_devops_ci_masking_variable into master

What does this MR do?

The current value cannot be masked[1] but CI variables default to masked. Rather than implementing a toggle for the masking control, simply change the value to something that can be masked.

[1] Currently, "simple" values can be masked:

  • it should be a single line
  • it should not have escape characters
  • it should not use variables
  • it should not have any whitespace
  • it should be longer than 8 characters

See !25476 (merged) and gitlab-org/release/tasks#731 (comment 158629682)
