API error 401 since yesterday

See original GitHub issue

Seems like authentication is failing again, I guess Dyson changed something again?

A workaround that just worked for me was to log out of the latest iOS app, log back in, then reboot homebridge.

I finally had some time to find a viable solution for 2FA. With the help of @sweetw0r and @coraxx I added a separate flow for retrieving the credentials for all your devices. The plugin now has a small website where you can retrieve the credentials by logging into the Dyson account. The plugin no longer directly communicated with the Dyson API. New version 2.0.0 is live on npm.

Let me know that you think. I haven’t tried the non-2FA flow, as my account has already been migrated to 2FA, however, the old flow is also implemented in the “website” for retrieving credentials.
