Remove the CAPTCHA from the "Request bridges" flow

anti-censorship issue: tpo/anti-censorship/rdsys#173 (comment 2941598)

The moat CAPTCHA UX is going away sometime in 2024. We will need to rip out the existing UX and implement the new UX in both Desktop and Android.

@meksio @donuts do we have any ideas for the UX to replace the current captcha UX?

We'll eventually want to do this properly, but the current implementation includes a dummy CAPTCHA @meskio has created here, meaning no UX changes should be necessary in the short-term: tpo/anti-censorship/rdsys#182 (closed)

A simple UX change you could do is to remove the captcha window and keep everything as it is now. So users click on 'Request a bridge' and then the bridge gets configured. I guess it might be nice to add some confirmation banner/window to indicate it worked well.

Together with this change TB should call the settings API instead of the captcha moat one. Let me know if the settings API needs any changes for that to happen.

Update

This issue is being covered by this other one, which's focused on Desktop and is currently waiting for review. After its validation, the flow will be mirrored for Android in Figma as well.

Another update: Android's version of the flow currently being designed in Figma.

removed All Platforms label

Update

Turns out this issue is already being covered by #41620 , not being related to Tor Browser for Android. In this case, I'll close this one.
