ask-password: Add --echo to enable echoing the user input
Programs such as OpenVPN may use ask-password for not only retrieving
passwords, but also usernames. Masking usernames with * seems just silly.
v2 - Don't mess with termios flags, instead print the input
instead of an asterix. Resolves issues with backspace
and TAB input.
v3 - Renamed 'do_echo' variables and argument to 'echo'. Also
modified the ask_password_{tty,agent,auto} API instead of
additional wrapper functions.
[zj: undo changes to ask_password_auto, since no callers were using
the new argument.]
