Title:
  QR Code to connect app to server

Status in Mahara:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  It is a real pain to connect the Mobile App with the Mahara server.

  Current process:

  On a computer (note: you can't access the "app" sub-tab on a mobile!)
  - Sign into Mahara
  - Go to "Settings"
  - Go to "App"
  - Click "Generate" to create a token

  Copy the URL and token and send it to your mobile somehow (e.g. email)

  On your mobile
  - Open the app
  - Copy / Paste the URL
  - Copy / Paste the token

  
  Suggested process:

  On a computer
  - Sign into Mahara
  - Click "Connect to App"
      - This would take the user to a new page that would
          - Generate the token automatically
          - Generate and display a QR code with both the server URL and token encoded

  On your mobile
  - Open the app
  - Click "Scan QR Code"
      - User can scan their screen with their mobile which would transfer the URL and token.
