credited with is correct idiom, Option B & D is out.
has been credited is correct usage because-
1)it is an achievement
2)the timeline of credit given is not defined, it can be before Or after his death.
I will go with option E.

I honestly don't know if there is a difference in meaning between C and E, but I chose C because it feels that to credit somebody with something is a one time event, and not a continuous event ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ implied by present perfect.
to credit somebody with somebody doesn't have that implication. It's possible to use the past perfect only if the sentence included that at some point in the past this person is no longer credited with that thing.
This is just how I feel I could be wrong.
Quote:
winning may feel like a one time event, but the present perfect tense here implies that winning is a state and therefore one day somebody else will have won the election.
