I made this change to increase software support for Lemmy Federate. This way, besides Lemmy and Mbin, other software that supports FEP-1b12 such as NodeBB, Piefed, Guppe, Friendica or other custom implementations (like blogs) will be able to register to Lemmy Federate.

However, I must admit that this change makes the login mechanism more difficult. But I believe it was worth it.

An example authentication flow:

Enter instance host and click login

Add given record to DNS, and click login again

At this point, API key becomes reusable between logins.

If you experience any problems please let me know.
