Creating users for the stats page

Create an admin user with password admin123:

echo "admin:admin:$(python -c 'from werkzeug.security import generate_password_hash; print(generate_password_hash("admin123"))')" >> instance/users.txt

This assumes the instance directory already exists, it will be auto-created when the server is running
