Subject: [PATCH] Simplify registration: direct users to Bookhoard web UI

Instead of showing a long auth URL that's impractical to type on
e-ink, tell users to open their Bookhoard web UI and approve from
Device Management. Uses persistent InfoMessage (no timeout) so
the message stays visible while they switch devices.
