"signal-cli register --reregister" → RegistrationRetryException

[Geremia]

I installed Signal on an Android device, then I got "User +xxxxxxxxxx is not registered" with signal-cli. Then I tried:

signal-cli register --reregister --captcha 'signalcaptcha://signal-hcaptcha.…'

verbose output

``` 2024-06-27T13:12:42.864-0700 [main] DEBUG org.asamk.signal.App - Starting signal-cli 0.13.2-SNAPSHOT 2024-06-27T13:12:42.996-0700 [main] INFO LibSignal - [libsignal]: rust/bridge/jni/src/logging.rs:158: Initializing libsignal version:0.40.1 2024-06-27T13:12:42.997-0700 [main] DEBUG org.asamk.signal.util.IOUtils - XDG_DATA_HOME not set, falling back to home dir 2024-06-27T13:12:43.222-0700 [main] INFO com.zaxxer.hikari.HikariDataSource - HikariPool-1 - Starting... 2024-06-27T13:12:43.311-0700 [main] INFO com.zaxxer.hikari.pool.HikariPool - HikariPool-1 - Added connection org.sqlite.jdbc4.JDBC4Connection@784c3487 2024-06-27T13:12:43.312-0700 [main] INFO com.zaxxer.hikari.HikariDataSource - HikariPool-1 - Start completed. 2024-06-27T13:12:44.742-0700 [main] INFO com.zaxxer.hikari.HikariDataSource - HikariPool-1 - Shutdown initiated... 2024-06-27T13:12:44.744-0700 [main] INFO com.zaxxer.hikari.HikariDataSource - HikariPool-1 - Shutdown completed. ```

but it had no effect. I received the SMS code, but signal-cli didn't ask for it. It still says:

$ signal-cli listDevices
User +xxxxxxxxxx is not registered.

Now I'm getting:

After registration you need to call the verify command with the verification code. Calling the register command too many times results in a rate limiting.

@AsamK Even before the RegistrationRetryException rate-limiting exception, I was getting invalid captcha responses. This is with master (0.13.5-SNAPSHOT).
