Verify Element X with an existing Element Classic account. (#5374)

* Read and import the secrets from ClassicAppAccounts.

* Record snapshots.

* Add some documentation, tidy up tests and fix the dismissal of the backup instructions.

* Workaround flakey tests (the fulfilments weren't always firing).

* Allow a custom Classic App deep link URL to be configured.
