Change subject: SECURITY: Add throttling for BotPasswords authentication
attempts
......................................................................
SECURITY: Add throttling for BotPasswords authentication attempts
ApiLogin which will currently always try an AuthManager login which will
by default throttle via ThrottlePreAuthenticationProvider, but this only
happens after the BotPassword is checked so it's still possible to keep
trying to break the bot password.
There's a potential odd-behavior mode here: if the main account username
and password looks like a BotPasswords username and password, a
successful main account login will increment the BotPasswords throttle
for the user and not reset it after the successful main account login.
That seems such an odd edge case I say let's not worry about it.
