Feature: Support homeserver without .well-known URL

See original GitHub issue

I am running the newest version of synapse-admin. After I click on “Sign in” on the landing page I get the error:

Cannot read property 'm.homeserver' of undefined

When I try a wrong password it shows me correctly:

Authentication failed, please retry

Actually the /.well-known/matrix/client should only be used when no Homeserver is given, but instead the user enters a fully qualified user-id like @foo:example.com. So my proposal is:

Reorder the input fields: 1. Username, 2. Password, 3. Homeserver
When the user enters a Username the client checks if it is fully qualified
if yes it checks the well-known URL and fills the Homeserver input
if no the Homeserver should be filled with the domain of the admin UI URL
the user can still override it
