First creation password too big for sign in UI

[Nelinski]

Describe the bug
When first creating an admin password, it lets you set what you want. However when trying to use that password to sign in, the UI caps your password at 32 characters meaning if you've set a long secure password you can't login. E.g. you lock yourself out from the start..

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create a long password (e.g. 50 characters) during first set up
2. Try login to the UI

Expected behavior
You can set a long password and still login via the UI.

N/A

Platform (please complete the following information):

• Device: Chromebook (albeit irrelevant)
• OS: Docker/Unraid
• Browser: Chrome
• Version: 1.1.1

As a side note.. I can't login! So any suggestions either on how to reset the password without email or how the password is encrypted so I can update it in the DB would be appreciated.

@Nelinski We have limited the maximum password length to 32 on the UI. so when the length of password exceeds 32, you can't enter more characters.

So, I'm guessing that maybe your password is the first 32 characters you type in. If it's otherwise, then I'm sorry. The password is encrypted in an overly complex way, so I suggest reinstalling it.

We will improve the usability of type="password". Remove maxlength attr in HTML and use a "too long" message instead.

Hi, looks like this is an easy fix for a beginner. Can I take it or it's still being discussed?

@carlqt thank you for being willing to contribute to the fix, but we have already fixed it in the 1.1.3 branch. You are welcome to participate in fixing other issues.

No worries, I will check other issues and contribute.
