Regressed in https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-react-sdk/pull/2768
where we check for an existing stored account first and restore that
instead if it exist, telling the user. We usually make a guest account
when the user first hits the page though, so this just restored this
guest account.
Don't restore the account if it's just a guest account (which, as per
comment, is not perfect, but is definitely better than the current
behaviour).

We look to see if there's already a user logged in and if there is,
restore that session instead of logging the user in as their new
account. We still set this 'is_registered' flag though, even though
in that case it's not a newly registered account that's being restored,
so don't set in that case.
This way the server config is consistent across login, password reset, and registration. This also brings the code into a more generic place for all 3 duplicated efforts.
Very similar to password resets and registration, the components pass around a server config for usage by other components. Login is a bit more complicated and needs a few more changes to pull the logic out to a more generic layer.
Concludes https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/8593
We are no longer seeing this error being triggered, and are considering it fixed. As a result, the dialog can be removed to reduce the amount of dead code in the project.
Now that we have a fancier password complexity check, remove the older minimum
length to avoid the feeling of two password style guides fighting each other.
In addition to migrating password fields, this also removes the remaining
support for old-style validation in registration now that all checks have been
converted.
When submitting a form, we want to validate more strictly to check for empty
values that might be required. A separate mode is used since we want to ignore
this issue when visiting a field one by one to enter data.
As an example, we convert the pre-existing logic for the username requirement
using this new support.
The Forgot Password screen wasn't checking the default server name for a value
before showing it, leading to a possible "Your Matrix account on <blank>"
message.
