Description

Similar to how fastlane handles authentication cookies, it would be nice to be able to authenticate once for 30 days. For fastlane if you use spaceauth within 30 days with a stored cookie it doesn't ask for 2FA codes. This could help some people with maintaining CI. Especially now that we have to use authentication again 😞

Along with this have a command login which just authenticates/reauthenticates with stored cookie and 2FA if needed. The cookie should be usable for further sessions.

By doing something like this it would be only required to enter password once per 30 days.

Research direction

Start by tracing the existing authentication flow and command entry points, then determine how stored cookies and 2FA are currently handled. Done means adding a login command that authenticates or reauthenticates as needed and permits subsequent sessions for up to 30 days.
