Address dynDNS mass registration problem #870

Due to a tutorial on Youtube and related blog posts, dynDNS registrations are going through the roof, causing frequent resigning of dedyn.io and excessive load.

To address the immediate problem, the domain limit for new accounts has been set to 0. This still causes a support request about every 2 minutes, and also affects users that want to bring their own domain.

Before we find a permanent solution, we're shutting down dedyn.io registrations through the sign-up form and via POST requests to the domains/ endpoint. We will attempt to continue Nextcloud VM's use case.

The following screenshot shows this PR's sign-up form. I hope that with respect to the number of support tickets, being explicit about the registration suspension will be more effective than a silent removal.

When DESECSTACK_API_REGISTER_LPS=0 is set, POST domains/ via GUI with domain name under LPS looks like this (ebe2428). Other domain names work normally.

Tested that Nextcloud VM workflow continues to function.
