Feature Request: Easier way for end uers to run developed integrations

Since we have all this new functionality I was thinking about some of the quirks with end users having to get API tokens. I wanted to start a conversation about a better way to obtain API Keys. It would be nice if there was a authenticated way we can have users obtain the key/token instead of the formal request through the app.

The idea is that instead of the user on of a external platform having to use the Govee Home app to request a key, what about allowing the integrator to write a process in their code to authenticate with the Govee Home App Creds and then in the return response received the API Token for use in their external app. This would allow a more clean function for users to use these added integrations.

You could also require a unique additional value that represents the source system. Then govee could track what integrations a user is using from external sources.
