Link on Login is bad

What happened?

Every Service Account has a Secret with valid Bearer Token that can be used to log in to Dashboard. To find out more about how to configure and use Bearer Tokens, please refer to the [Authentication](https://kubernetes.io/docs/admin/authentication/) section.

This text under "Token" authentication points to 404 page.

Version: v2.7.0 (latest tag as of now)

What did you expect to happen?

Need to update the link that "Authentication" points to.

Suggestion: https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/access-application-cluster/web-ui-dashboard/#accessing-the-dashboard-ui

How can we reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible)?

Just a standard install from current 'latest' version 'v2.7.0' and browse to the dashboard login page. Look at the "Token" section.

Anything else we need to know?
