Update the wiki on how to authenticate the user now

Update the wiki with the new changes of the units mobile API, including the changed way of authentication.

I'm not sure what wiki entry you mean. The API calls mostly stayed the same, the only thing that changed is the URL the API is accessed with.

Sorry, my bad, I understood the conversation in #201 wrong. So if I'm right, you now use mobileServiceUrl for android and ios if their respective useMobileServiceUrl is true, and else you use https://mobile.webuntis.com/ms/app/<schoolid>/jsonrpc_intern.do?

Not quite.

Each login request now looks at the school info object returned from school search.

You correctly assumed that mobileServiceUrl is used as-is if useMobileServiceUrl is true.

Otherwise however, serverUrl is used as a base URL and modified to include /jsonrpc_intern.do in the path (e.g. https://euterpe.webuntis.com/WebUntis?school=demo-school becomes https://euterpe.webuntis.com/WebUntis/jsonrpc_intern.do?school=demo-school).

The mobile.webuntis.com URL was used in previous versions of the app and actually caused all the latest crashes, it seems that Untis doesn't allow using this endpoint any more.

Thanks for the explanation, this confirms that my feature request is invalid.
