Description

### Steps to reproduce

1. Reset Cross Signing on an SSO based account
2. Sign in with SSO provider when prompted

### Outcome

#### What happened instead?
After signing in the user is brought to a confusing page with both a Close button and a Back button. As far as I can tell the Close button does nothing. You have to tap the Back button even though the text tells you to "close this window".

Research direction

No source file, test, or entry point is named. Reproduce the Cross Signing reset flow on iOS 15.5 with app version 1.8.20; done means the post-SSO screen has clear navigation and its wording matches the action that works.
