Description

`/api/v2/me/password` does not work at all. It's just implemented in a way such that it could never work correctly. I think we should actually eliminate this route from the API spec as `/api/v2/users/{userID}/password` is the correct endpoint to use for this, and is what the CLI uses. I don't think these endpoints are used on cloud for user management currently unless @glinton knows otherwise?

Research direction

Locate the OpenAPI specification entry for `/api/v2/me/password` and compare it with the documented `/api/v2/users/{userID}/password` endpoint. Remove the obsolete route from the specification and verify that the user-specific password endpoint remains available and the removed route is no longer listed.
