 there is existing filter `allow_password_reset` which doesn't work as it
 might sound..
 For example, setting that filter to `false` still allows the "wp-
 login.php?action=lostpassword" url continue to work.

 Many people today uses 3rd party authorizations (Google sign in, facebook,
 etc etc) and want to have disabled internal registration/password reset
 forms.
 It will be good to have a filter to disable "Lost password" capability
 completely.

 (Also, I assumed that if users are allowed to be registered on site, then
 it doesn't have any point to have "Lost password" disabled, so, the check
 includes whether "registration is disabled".)
