The Add account wizard always asks for a token on step 2 even when a default token is saved in Settings. When one is saved, the wizard should offer 'Use the default token' (on by default); the token box is then disabled and the default token is validated and copied into the new account's own vault entry on save. Unticking it allows a different token as today. Editing an existing account is unchanged. Requested by the owner on 2026-10-10.

Design: docs/plans/default-token-ux.md in https://github.com/KofTwentyTwo/gclo/pull/103 (draft, for review). Key decision: accounts reference the default token (TokenSource = Default) rather than copying it, so rotating it in Settings rotates every such account.
