Change Azure CLI device login link to more reliable, faster URL

[pcgeek86]

Related command

az login

Describe the bug

The az login command is unbearably slow and oftentimes fails, due to the device login link provided by Microsoft.

The recommended link should be changed from https://microsoft.com/devicelogin to https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/deviceauth

To Reproduce

az login

Follow the device login link.

Expected behavior

Device login link should be:

1. Reliable
2. Fast

Environment summary

Any browser (Firefox, Chrome, or even PowerShell)

The device code message is returned by the AAD service:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/develop/v2-oauth2-device-code#device-authorization-response

Azure CLI has no control over it and simply shows it as-is:

azure-cli/src/azure-cli-core/azure/cli/core/auth/identity.py

Lines 161 to 167 in f0c87ca

	def login_with_device_code(self, scopes, **kwargs):
	flow = self._msal_app.initiate_device_flow(scopes, **kwargs)
	if "user_code" not in flow:
	raise ValueError(
	"Fail to create device flow. Err: %s" % json.dumps(flow, indent=4))
	from azure.cli.core.style import print_styled_text, Style
	print_styled_text((Style.WARNING, flow["message"]), file=sys.stderr)

For a shorter link, you can try: https://aka.ms/devicelogin
This will redirect to https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/deviceauth

"https://microsoft.com/devicelogin" is currently broken.
Is it abolition or disability?
