Use shadow DOM instead of an iframe to encapsulate CSS

Fix #161

The problem: the widget uses an iframe to encapsulate its CSS and
prevent leaking it to the projects using the widget (and vice versa).
But since the iframe has a `src` attribute with the value `about:blank`,
password managers do not work properly (they refuse to set a password
without a corresponding url).

The solution: as suggested by this comment #161 (comment),
this commit replaces the iframe by a shadow DOM element, which still
encapsulates the modal CSS, but lets password managers do their thing
(confirmed on Firefox 84.0.2).
