Direct users to instructions on logging in at askbitcoin.ai #33

There are challenges to logging in to pow.co and other boost sites because of default security settings on standard browsers that prevent pow.co and relayx from communicating with one another properly.

This is an issue for ALL boost websites, not just pow.co!!!

We can make logging in easier for new users by directing the users to a question on askbitcoin.ai specifically to explain logging in on different browsers. When a user is asked to log in, there should be a link that says "Problems logging in?" or something like that. The link will direct the user to the question below or some appropriate question like it with url parameters set to show all time boosts, not simply default to the last day.

We would want to show all time boosts because we don't want to have to keep updating this question every day. This question should be a classic that provides the final answers. Right now we don't have a way to set "all time" difficulty in the url, so this issue depends on the issue below.

Update: the general problem that users experience logging is that they need to enable cross-site tracking, which is disabled on many browsers by default. This should be explained to users on the login screen along with a link to the ask bitcoin page labeled "Having trouble?".
