[Bug]: Errors after password changed #6446

Summary

I was hit by multiple issues after I had changed my account password and tried to upload images using the app.

Steps to reproduce

  1. The app didn't understand that I would have needed to enter my new password.
  2. Instead, it made repeated failed logins when it tried to upload images.
  3. In the Wikipedia app, I was able to login after answering the captcha and waiting 5 minutes and providing the login confirmation code sent via email.
  4. In the Commons app, I had to manually choose "log out".
  5. At this point (?) I lost all the captions, descriptions etc. that I had entered.
  6. I tried to log in, but it didn't show the captcha and didn't trigger the confirmation code functionality.
  7. The error message was "Incorrect password or confirmation code entered. Please try again."
  8. After a while I was able to log in again - perhaps after waiting 5 more minutes?

Expected behaviour

Ask for the new password then proceed with the upload normally.

Actual behaviour

Detailed above.
