Add a button to "autofill" Refresh Token #16

The process of getting the refresh token is difficult and error prone, especially for people who are not computer savvy (e.g. using a "curl" command). It should be possible to have a button in the config UI that will open the authentication screen and get the value.

Can you not potentially use the Terminal in Homebridge UI?

yes i'm blocked at this point , i have all my code but curl is a mystery for me and i try but don't work ..

I did this process a while back so don't really recall off the top of my head, but anywhere in the instructions, e.g. Use the API, it asked to use the curl command, I just opened up the Terminal from the Homebridge-UI under the menu and inputted the command.
