r8139 never merged...

r8139 never got voted on or merged in 1.0-stabilization. This means
username prompt providers are still broken in 1.0. This patch has been
on trunk since Jan 3rd. So I'm not sure how we missed it. But I
noticed it when testing the 1.0-stabilization branch tonight.

I'm adding it to the STATUS file. Hopefully enough people can vote on
this to get it into 0.37. *sigh*

For convience the log follows:

r8139 | bliss | 2004-01-03 02:45:32 -0800 (Sat, 03 Jan 2004) | 52 lines
Changed paths:
   M /trunk/subversion/libsvn_client/simple_providers.c
   M /trunk/subversion/libsvn_client/username_providers.c

Fix two bugs when the prompt providers are not installed (e.g. when
the cmdline option --non-interactive is used):

  1. No username was used by ra_local.

  2. Authentication failed if --password was used without --username.

Move the code to get the username from the OS from the username and
simple prompt providers to the regular providers. Improve code
readability and error checking.

The old code saved the values that was read from disk in the provider
baton to avoid saving unchanged data, but now that we have the
may_save parameter in the creds struct we use that method in all
simple and username providers instead.
