UtilPasswordsGenerateMemorablePassword(MemorablePasswordOptions, IEnumerableString) Method

Generates a memorable password based on the provided options and word list.

A memorable password is a type of password that is designed to be easy to remember, while still providing a reasonable level of security.

It is a password generation methodology that aims to be recalled by the user without the need for written notes or relying solely on password managers.

The goal is to create a password that is both secure and memorable, striking a balance between convenience and protection.
