Easier way to retrieve Access Token by uptodate app (#11852)

Browse Source 
* Easier way to retrieve Access Token by uptodate app

IMPORTANTANT: I actually do not have a "Xiaomi Mi Robot Vacuum", I have a "Xiaomi Aqara Gateway", therefore this method schould be checked by someone owning a robot vacuum!!!

I actualy am setting up the xiaomi_gateway_alarm through this custom component:
https://github.com/hekm77/homeassistant-config/tree/master/custom_components/xiaomi_gateway_alarm
For that component I need the same 32 character "token" as this component uses and the docs of xiaomi_gateway_alarm refered to these instructions.

I found these current instructions to difficult/to much work, so I tryed to do it simpler and for me it worked.
I just tryed the develepor mode of the gateway and even in the latest app 5.6.46 (january 2020) the token is just there in plain text.

I use:
gateway model: lumi.gateway.v3
gateway firmware_version: 1.4.1_175
gateway hardware_version: MW300
Android app (Samsung Galaxy S8) version: 5.6.46

steps to get there are in this PR.

Can someone ferify this works for the robot vacuum???

## Retrieving the Access Token
### Xiaomi Home app (Xiaomi Aqara Gateway, android?)
1. Install the Xiaomi Home app.
2. Sign In/make an account.
3. Make sure you set your region to: Mainland China (Seems to be the longest line with Chines characters) under settings -> Region (language can later be set on English).
4. Select your Gateway in Xiaomi Home app.
5. Then the 3 dots at the top right of the screen.
6. Then click on about.
7. Tap the version number (Plug-in version 2.77.1 as of January 2020) at the bottom of the screen repeatedly.
8. You should now see 2 extra options listed in English, this means you enabled developer mode. [if not, try all steps again!].
9. Under "Hub info" there is quite some text in JSON format, this includes the "token" that you need.
### Alternative methods
<div class='note'>
If using an Android device to retrieve the Access Token only `v5.4.49` of Mi Home is confirmed working (December 2019). Use `v5.4.49` of Mi Home locate a text file under the `Smarthome/logs` folder where the 32 character token is stored. There will likely be several text files in this directory, search all of them for the word 'token' and you should find it there. Be advised that the latest version of Mi Home does not store the token in clear text.
