docs: add an OAuth2.0 credential helper for AOL accounts
Yahoo and AOL, both advertise that they support app passwords for third-party applications. But generating app passwords for them is broken and unreliable for quite some time now. Yahoo already had an OAuth2.0 credential helper added in the documentation, so I thought it would be a good idea to add one for AOL accounts as well, which is more reliable and secure.
