Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reviewing the existing OsmAnd Cloud authentication flow and clarifying the supported second-factor method and recovery requirements with maintainers. Done should be a defined, implemented, and tested 2FA flow that protects cloud data.

Description

Nice to have
Describe the idea

I've been working with the OsmAnd Cloud over the past few days and see a lot of potential there that I'd like to use. What strikes me, however, is that access to the data in the cloud is a bit too easy. All you need is an email address and a password. That's not enough in my opinion. I'd like to have F2A, e.g., through a Yubico or something similar, for better security.
