Jeroen UbbinkandClaude Opus 4.8 8aa2fa5c4a feat(scripts): add admin-password reset CLI
Provide an offline recovery command that sets a new admin password directly in
the Secret store, for operators locked out of the admin UI.

"""Recover admin access by resetting the stored admin password (issue #553).
The lockout escape hatch for an operator who has lost the admin password. It
talks to the ``secrets`` table directly and deliberately does *not* require
``ROUTSTR_SECRET_KEY``: the admin password is scrypt-hashed (key-independent),
so recovery works even when the encryption key is missing or has changed.
Two explicit, mutually exclusive actions — running with no arguments only prints
help, so the password can't be reset by accident:
python scripts/reset_admin_password.py --password <new-password>
Hash and store <new-password> now.
python scripts/reset_admin_password.py --regenerate
Clear the stored hash; the next node startup generates a fresh random
password and logs it once (with the /admin URL).
