Description

Found the following warning in a failed job log:

WARNING: API warning (login): Fetching a token via "action=login" is deprecated. Use "action=query&meta=tokens&type=login" instead.

I think it's coming from pywikibot.data.api.LoginManager.getCookie, in which case getCookie needs to be updated.

Mentioned In: T249526: Misleading warning raised by the login API: "Fetching a token via action=login is deprecated"

Could not find a way to reproduce, maybe the source is somewhere other than getCookie...
