Remove temporary JWT session configuration setting for BotPasswords
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

In T415007, we introduced a temporary configuration setting for BotPassword to make use of the JWT session cookie. This task is a follow-up on T415007: Login with `action=login` and bot password does not create a JWT session cookie to clean up the temporary configuration settings and remove them from production.
