What's the problem this PR addresses?
Npm plans to fully remove the
/-/user/org.couchdb.user:<name>endpoint. Since we use this endpoint to login, we need to implement support for the newer/-/v1/loginendpoint.How did you fix it?
A new option,
--web-login, enables the web login flow (and fallbacks to the password flow if the web flow isn't supported). This flag is automatically enabled for the npm registry. This is technically a breaking change, but since it's the registry that plans to make that change I think it's ok.Checklist
