feat: adds support for randomly generated admin password on first run.

For a long time, we have used G@ppm0ym as a standard static default password. This PR removes the static password. The goal has been for users to always integrate their own authentication with role based auth. That said, we understand this doesn't always happen. As such, randomly generating a password on first run when no static password is provided will adhere to better security practices. Existing users should have the `adminPassword` and therefore be unaffected by this change.
