Problem Description
I would like to password protect the settings page to prevent my child from altering the parental control settings I have applied. This was mentioned in #1456 as being desirable as a separate PR.
Proposed Solution
Add a settings panel to allow a password to be set or cleared. When a password is set, it is stored as a setting. For this use case I am unsure if we need to encrypt the password in the settings. We could use bcrypt if desired.
My preference would be to lock all the settings, as even non-sensitive settings such as "use this invidious url" can render freetube unusable and I would rather not spend time working out what had been changed by my inquisitive child.
To keep things as simple as possible I am suggesting that the password can be changed by removing an existing password and setting a new one.
Alternatives Considered
Please let me know if you think I should add a confirmation password field. For my use case, I would probably skip this and not encrypt the password, so that I could reset it in the settings if I forgot it.
