Describe the bug:

Cannot create a user with a 3 characters long name.

To Reproduce:

Create a new invitation, set username to 3 characters (ex: jef)
Username Field will be marked in red with the following message : "Must be at least 4 characters long."

Additional context:

This is the only thing preventing me from using voidauth in my homelab as some existing usernames are only 3 characters long.
Maybe can this be added as configuration option like the PASSWORD_STRENGTH ?

I don't see any issue changing the minimum username length to 3 characters, or even fewer, since I believe I just chose 4 as a sane default while getting the app working.

I will probably include this change in the next release, as long as I don’t run into any issues.
