Add honeypot fields and minimum fill-out time for sign-up form (#15276)

Browse source 
* Add honeypot fields to limit non-specialized spam

Add two honeypot fields: a fake website input and a fake password confirmation
one. The label/placeholder/aria-label tells not to fill them, and they are
hidden in CSS, so legitimate users should not fall into these.

This should cut down on some non-Mastodon-specific spambots.

* Require a 3 seconds delay before submitting the registration form

* Fix tests

* Move registration form time check to model validation

* Give people a chance to clear the honeypot fields

* Refactor honeypot translation strings
