Description
-------

As discussed in RR 125619 and 126426, the password verification field (in a KNewPasswordWidget) should not be marked as "wrong" before the user even started typing the verification password.

My revised approach is the following:

* the first time, no "warning color" is displayed at all. The user types something as password and then something else as verification password.
* If a match occurred (e.g. pwd = 1234 and verification = 1234), we "enable" the warning color. So if the user "breaks" the match (e.g. changing the value in one of the two fields) the warning color will be displayed.
* Otherwise, if a mismatch occurred, we also enable the warning color and we show it immediately. A mismatch occurs when the password and the verification password have same length but different content (e.g. pwd = 1234 and verification = 1233).

Testing
-------

Autotests assert what described above. Gif pictures would explain the patch better than 1000 words, but I suck at creating them :(


Thanks,
