Add validation for minimum password length requirement.

Describe your change

  • Fix a bug or typo in an existing algorithm?
    Added input validation to alternative_password_generator() in other/password.py.

The function now checks whether the requested password length is smaller than the number of required characters. If the length is insufficient, it raises a ValueError with a clear error message.

This prevents the function from generating a password longer than the requested length.
