Juan Castro a983969f32 feat: prompt a team seat to choose its own password on first sign-in
The backend already refused every route with `password_change_required` until a
provisioned account replaced the password its administrator chose, and
`/user-protected/change-password` was already exempt so the account could act.
The client half was missing entirely: nothing in the GUI referenced that code,
so a seat signed in and then failed at everything with no prompt and no way out.

Two gaps, both closed here.

The flag never reached the client. Neither the login response nor `/whoami`
carried `requires_password_change`, so the GUI could not have known even if it
wanted to. It ships from both now, alongside the other three verification flags
the whoami extension already describes as "the flags the GUI acts on".

There was no window to show. `UIWindowChangePassword` is a settings dialog --
closable, and it never resolves on success -- so it cannot act as a gate.
`UIWindowPasswordChangeRequired` mirrors the existing `*Required` windows: it
resolves true only once the change lands, and `initgui` loops on it. It runs
last in the boot chain, matching the server order in assertVerifiedAccount.

It refuses a new password equal to the current one. Without that the account
stays on the credential its administrator still holds, which is the entire thing
the gate exists to end.

Falsified twice: dropping the same-password guard fails "refuses to reuse the
password the admin handed over", and resolving on a rejected response fails
"stays open on a rejected change, so the gate cannot be escaped" -- each
breaking only its own test.

175 backend tests, 326 GUI/SDK tests, typecheck clean.
