[bugfix] Fix scripts/login.py with clientlogin using "rememberMe"

scripts/login.py ends session after it finishes, which clears login credentials without rememberme cookie. With action=login, rememberme cookie was set automatically, but clientlogin needs to include "rememberMe" specifically in the API query.
