Hello!
This PR adds a check to the CreateAccount and ResetPassword activities that will warn the user if the new password is the same as the username (T211639). This constraint is enforced by the Wikipedia site and it's useful to give users direct feedback on these constraints.
Yours sincerely, Sven.
P.S. I'm part of group of 4 students who will spend 10 weeks investigating the software architecture of wikipedia-android as part of the Software Architecture MSc course at TU Delft. We'll be writing several blog posts about our findings and make contributions to the project. If possible, it would be great to get in contact with core developers, both at the Wikimedia Foundation and volunteers, so please reach out! :)
