I've found an upstream bug report: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=773009

I've also devised a simple workaround:

martin@dogmeat ~ % cat /etc/rsyslog.d/20-gcr-prompter-discard.conf
# gcr-prompter logs debug info to /var/log/auth.log
# https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gcr/+bug/1533267
# https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=773009
if $programname == 'gcr-prompter' then stop

Run `sudo systemctl restart rsyslog` after creating that file, then gcr-prompter should no longer produce any logs.
