Require users to confirm password in signup screen

[yuvipanda]

We should have users type their password in twice during signup to make sure they are not making typos. Currently it's easy to make a typo and then be unable to log in.

The text we used to base other password strength characteristcs pointed out that being able to see the password is better then writing it twice, since allows you to create more complex things. That's why I didn't add a second one. You still think this is necessary?

Thanks @lambdaTotoro

why I am getting login page directly instead of signup page after running jupyterhub?

[lambdaTotoro]

Defaulting to Login is a sensible thing to do, in my opinion, since logins are much, much more common than signups.

But please don't clog issues with unrelated questions.

I actually think this is good to have. The text @leportella refers to speaks about making it possible for users to see their password on login, but it would also be nice to have them confirm it on signup to root out typos in passwords.
