Replace password auth by trust token
This has been discussed previously and password support is less visible that it used to be but we should ensure it doesn't go in the next LXD. This should be similar to https://github.com/lxc/incus/pull/62
I think its too close to the LTS release date to remove this functionality without consulting with other teams/users as to whether they depend on this functionality and would need to make their own updates. We could remove this in 6.0 potentially though.
@escabo are you happy for us to go ahead and remove the trust password concept in 6.1?
Update: Edited to reflect the right release numbers.
We have added support for explicitly specifying trust tokens with https://github.com/canonical/lxd/pull/13589. This way we can backport this addition into the 5.21.X releases.
The removal of the trust password was done in https://github.com/canonical/lxd/pull/13567 and will affect the upcoming 6.X releases.
This way we can backport this addition into the 6.X releases.
You mean 5.21.x releases? We dont do backports for 6.x releases.

Yes thanks for catching this! I have updated the comment.
