Move `swh web auth` into a dedicated `swh auth` cli entrypoint

Now that the authentication token is at least shared between the webapp, the swh web cli and the deposit. It makes sense to move it in the authentication module.

It should be done as follows:

  • Duplicate the code from swh.web.client to swh.auth and make it as an auth cli

  • Deprecate the swh.web.client cli and/or make it depend on swh.auth [2]

  • Update the documentation links with proper redirection to the newly documented cli

  • [1] Something like:

swh auth --client-id=swh-web
  • [2] swh.auth is rather lightweight so there is no issue making swh.auth a deps of swh.web.client
