Restore dashboard --enable-skip-login

Browse Source 
Skip-login was stripped in an earlier "harden security" pass, which is
why the dashboard started demanding a token. Re-added it; it now runs
as the dashboard's own view-only ServiceAccount (get/list/watch), so
opening it needs no token but write access still requires the
admin-user token as before.

```bash
kubectl -n kubernetes-dashboard create token admin-user
```
2. Copy the token and paste it in the dashboard login screen.
