feature request: sigin with PAT #1061

What problem did you meet?

I am developing a Capacitor app, and in my local development setup (using the browser to develop said app) I cannot use the starndard sign-in flow, so I tried to implement sing-in through a Personal Access Token (that I manually got from the dashboard). Additionally, after careful consideration, I've decided that keeping the option of signing in with a PAT could be useful, as if for a user the standard sign-in flow doesn't work, they still can sign-in.

I have tried in so many different ways to do this: retrieving an access token and saving it to storage, creating a new instance of the client o load the data from storage... None of them has worked, and it seems like being able to login through a PAT should be a no-brainer, specially in the JavaScript ecosystem, where a PAT could be useful for many use cases.

Describe what you'd like Logto to have

A method in the LogtoClient to sign-in through a PAT, provided to the method, e.g. as a parameter. It should initialize the client with the same internal logic as the standard sign-in flow does, using also the configuration that said client has.
