Show a "Use another method" link on the challenge page when another regular provider is available, so users can go back to the selection page instead of cancelling the login. Assisted-by: ClaudeCode:claude-opus-5-5 Signed-off-by: skjnldsv <skjnldsv@protonmail.com>

Summary
Once a 2FA method is picked on the selection page, the challenge page only offers "Use backup code" and "Cancel login". If I pick Nextcloud Notification but have no logged-in device at hand, the only way to use TOTP instead is "Cancel login", which logs out and means typing the password again.
This adds a "Use another method" link to the challenge page that goes back to
/login/selectchallenge, keepingredirect_url. The pending 2FA session is untouched sinceselectChallengeis a plain GET, so nothing changes on the session side.The link only shows when there is another regular provider than the current one. With only TOTP + backup codes, the existing "Use backup code" link already covers it, so it stays hidden. On the backup codes page it shows as soon as a regular provider exists.

(Ill do a design improvement of the whole 2FA in a secondary PR)
