Manual login doesn't work when 2FA is enabled #499

I had attempted to use hangups --manual-login and followed the steps. After I pasted the oauth_code value, the screen would show Connecting..., but nothing else would happen. The hangups log showed 2020-09-04 11:55:36,272 - hangups.channel - WARNING - Long-polling request failed: Request return unexpected status: 401: Unauthorized. There was no hangups device in my Google account at this point.

Subsequently, I turned 2FA off on my Google account and was able to complete the manual login process use hangups successfully. There is now a hangups device in my Google account.

Probably related to #498.
