Research direction

Start by reviewing the discussion in pull request 842 and locating the change-password page it references. Add a password strength meter and validation there, including the repeat-password behavior suggested in the discussion; done means the page visibly measures strength and rejects invalid or mismatched passwords.

Description

As raised by @megoth in https://github.com/solid/node-solid-server/pull/842

Not directly related, but more of a note to self: We've added repeat password on another page, we probably should do that here as well.

But for this case, we need to find a good markup of the password component. I've used two divs with col-md-3in the previous design, so might revert something a bit here, unless you have a better suggestion?
