App Passwords: new SOAP API authentication method

App Password is a new way to authenticate through the SOAP API and get an access token for your app. It works by having a user create a special password linked with their profile (user ID) in their Security and Privacy tab. They can then use this password to authenticate and obtain an access token in place of using their own personal account passwords. Account admins can also use an App Password to make SOBO calls, sending on behalf of an account user without getting their explicit permission.
