Mentioning Google Authenticator was done by the django 2fa plugin we use. I
now overwrote the template (https://invent.kde.org/websites/my-kde-org/-/blob/master/templates/two_factor/core/setup.html)
and mention andOTP (the 2fa tool I used on Android from F-Droid) now too.

I didn't want to do that at the beginning because it means more code to
maintain and I'm already hesitating of reverting overwriting the template :(

I guess this needs a bit more discussion so I opened this invent task:
https://invent.kde.org/websites/my-kde-org/-/issues/17 to brainstorm this.

Cheers,
Carl
