Get login information for the BWG database
Description
This function retrieves a login token necessary for accessing the BWG database.
It prompts the user for their BWG username and password (the password is masked),

This token is saved in the global environment variable 'credentials' for later use.
Usage
bwg_auth()

in the 'token' field. The token is required for making subsequent requests
to the BWG database API.

environment variable with the obtained login token.
