Change auth flow one-time code display string to reflect inability to paste (and thus the need to 'copy') one-time code into auth webpage

Describe the feature or problem you’d like to solve

Upon issuing command gh auth login, and selecting auth flow options -->GitHub.com-->HTTPS-->Login with a web browser, the user is then presented with a helpful message:

! First copy your one-time code: B39F-XXXX
Press Enter to open github.com in your browser...

This message, however, is somewhat misleading: Upon hitting enter the user cannot paste the copied string - presumably B39F-XXXX - into the presented webpage at https://github.com/login/device. This page requires manual input of each character, thus negating the need to "copy" the one-time code from the terminal in the first place.

The user simply needs to refer to the code, not "copy" it.

Proposed solution

Proposing to simplify the text string from First copy your one-time code: to Your one-time code:

How will it benefit CLI and its users?

Presents esp. first time users with an accurate authentication flow, and no useless step of copying a string from CLI needlessly. Thus... an easier, smoother auth flow for all.

Thanks for the suggestion! This would make sense if the web page explicitly prohibited paste, however, I was always able to paste the code in the web field. Which web browser are you unable to paste in?

Oh dear, you caught me in an assumption: That other browsers/setups could behave differently.

That being said, its seeming to work great and as intended for me today. What I had done previously, several times, to encounter that speed bump I do not know..

Lets then close this ticket and see it as a wonderful exercise in contributing.
Thanks!
