Bug Description

The Metaserver login box is confusing. Image: https://wl.widelands.org/wiki/GameHelpMultiplayer/

- AFAIK the Warning isn't correct anymore
- The Login box makes only sense at first access or if a user wants to login to an registered account. So, imho, the checkbox 'Login to an registered account' is useless.

Suggestion: Remove the warning and the first checkbox and place a sentence there describing how to get a registered account.

Since this would a rework of the login box, see also bug 1827856

We should also add a password mode to the Editbox class that will show *** instead of the actual text.
