Add exponential timeout for failed login attempts

Introduces a configurable brute-force protection mechanism that enforces
increasing wait times between login attempts. The timeout doubles with
each failure (e.g., 5s → 10s → 20s → ...) up to a configurable maximum.

New settings:
- logindenial: Base timeout in seconds (0 to disable)
- logindenial_max: Maximum timeout cap (default 1 hour)

The feature works independently of CAPTCHA protection - failed attempts
are tracked per IP using the existing IpCounter mechanism, and users
are shown the remaining wait time when blocked.

Yes it is neither very secure nor is it accessible but its fun ;-)
