Details:

I wrote this patch because I wanted to use passwords in target URLs. For
example, these targets are valid after this patch is applied:

   ftp://MyUser:address@hidden/MyPath/
   webdav://MyUser:address@hidden/MyPath/

The change applies to any backend that uses the FTP_PASSWORD variable through
the get_password() method.

This capability is convenient on trusted systems and in environment-less cron
jobs.

I tried to add a 'pass' property to the ParsedUrl class, but realized that
the ParsedUrl missed some corner cases and parsing URLs is generally
difficult.  Using the Python standard library was easier and cleaner.

The patch is against duplicity-0.4.6-6285, so it must be rediffed to fit
recent CVS commits.
