Fixes the mongodb tops module to work with pymongo v4+ by replacing the deprecated mdb.authenticate() method with authentication credentials passed directly to the MongoClient constructor.
What issues does this PR fix or reference?
Fixes #68659
Previous Behavior
The mongodb tops module used the deprecated mdb.authenticate(user, password) method which was removed in pymongo v4. This caused authentication failures when using pymongo v4.9+ (required for MongoDB v8 compatibility).
New Behavior
Authentication credentials are now passed directly to MongoClient constructor using username, password, and authSource parameters, making it compatible with both pymongo v3 and v4+.
