Description

### Please agree to the following

### Summary

Add the option to scan license key as QR code

### Motivation

If a user purchases the license key using a desktop, they have to find a way to send the very long license key to their Android device. The current options are:
1) Open the license email on the Android device and click the link therein.
2) Share the key string with the Android device somehow, and copy-paste the string into the input field.

I propose a 3rd option where the license key is displayed as a QR code on the desktop (where the purchase was made), and the user is given the option to scan the QR code when asked for the license key.
