[GNC] NEW USER: SETTING UP GNUCASH TO WORK WITH MY BANK UNDER THE UK OPEN BANKING INITIATIVE

The open banking initiative has strict requirements upon the data
controller (ie FinTech apps) to have safeguards, and gnucash being open
source will never be able to satisfy the encryption and authentication
requirements to receive a licence to access the data.
