webapp: LAPS clear actually removes the password from session JSON

Previous /imaging/<serial>/laps clear path used update_session() to
re-feed state minus laps_password. But update_session MERGES payload
into existing state - it cannot delete a key the existing state
already has. The laps_password persisted on disk across the "clear"
POST, then came back into the page on next reload.

Fix: bypass update_session for the clear case. Read the session JSON
directly, pop laps_password, write via atomic tempfile-rename. Same
write pattern update_session uses for consistency.
