New action `before_login_form`

I can add new fields before default fields form. For example I can add social login :

The patch would need some improved docblock description (see login_form hook for example) and an updated @since value. Also, should the hook name be login_form_before?

In general, I think it's time to finally make the login form more modular and testable.

Replying to swissspidy:

Given that it fires inside the form tag, I think login_form_top would be a better name, see ​comment_form_top for example.

If login_form_before was introduced, I'd expect it to fire before the form tag, see ​comment_form_before.

Completely agree with this. Updating the keywords to match that there is no patch that does this.
