Review request for kdelibs.


Summary
-------

Currently it's not possible to supply http credentials using the request URL (like http://lemma:mypassword@somewhere.com). I couldn't find any other possibility to "infuse" the credentials without user interaction (which is nice to have in some cases, eg. when doing rpc-over-http).

This patch is currently more a proof of concept. I'm not sure:
- if the credentials should be cached in KPasswdServer if authentication succeeds
- if this is the right way at all. Insights very welcome.
