This fixes a long standing limitation of the VNC/SPICE code which was
unable to securely accept passswords on the CLI, instead requiring use
of separate monitor commands after startup.
In v2:
- Dropped patch removing ACL commands, as it will move to a bigger
deprecation cleanup series
- Rebased and resolved conflicts
Daniel P. Berrangé (3):
ui: introduce "password-secret" option for VNC servers
ui: introduce "password-secret" option for SPICE server
ui: deprecate "password" option for SPICE server
