Proposed change
There are several reports about an error "Server response doesn't match our challenge" coming from the upstream library, which simply points out that the credentials do not match.
It has been reported that this might be due to incorrect letter casing in the e-mail address, e.g., #133164 (comment) and python-kasa/python-kasa#1351 (comment) .
To make it clear that both email and password should be written as they were when the device was provisioned through the app, this PR adds a remark about the case-sensitivity of the credentials to the input dialogs.
