Fix login validation and improve error messages

- Check if user account is inactive before allowing login
- Add password confirmation in change password dialog
- Prevent changing password to the same value
- Standardize error messages to say "Invalid index" instead of "Invalid choice"
- Add blank line before system pause prompt
- Add "Change Password" header to change password screen
- Show error message when login fails

Fixes #1738
Fixes #1736
