WIP: [ovh] Handle user-activated double factor authentication

OVH lets the user enable (or not) a 2fa, which is used during each regular login. It's now possible to manage this 2fa with 2 new (optional) config values:

  • 2fa_type let you choose the type of 2fa (between totp, sms, u2f, staticOTP)
  • 2fa_value let you handle the value of this second factor.

You have multiple options for the value of the 2fa:

  • You may let 2fa_value absent or empty, in which case weboob should ask you for the value to use at the time it is needed. You'll be able to use your TOTP (mobile) application, check your received SMS, use a security code, ...
  • You may also choose to use an external tool which will provide the value (e.g. PasswordStore with OTP extension, an SMS reading application, ...)

Note: For the moment, the 'u2f' method needs specific information sent to the key which are not available in this interface (challenge, list of registered keys). Please do not use it at this time.
