Description

As of April 14, 2023, the Twitter v1 API is completely discontinued, and thus the Authl handler no longer functions. It might be nice to support Twitter again someday, although right now that is not a priority for me personally.

Start by locating the Authl Twitter handler and inspect how it currently uses the discontinued v1 API. Update the handler for Twitter's v2 API and verify that Twitter authentication works again; the issue does not name a file or test to run.
