Re: kwallet branch is finished

OK, I've reviewed the branch -- not the KDE-specific code, of course,
but the general auth-system changes it entails. Arfrever has
responded to my review with fixes, but there's only one issue I'm
still worried about.

Specifically, I don't understand why this change is creating an
entirely new svn_auth_kwallet.h public header file. As a rule, we try
to keep the number of public headers files to a minimum, to keep
things simpler for developers. This new header seems like a wart to
me; all it does is declare a new kwallet auth provider. And yet, our
other "conditional" auth providers (crytpostore on Windows, keychain
on OS X) are declared directly in svn_auth.h already.

Arfrever said that when his provider was declared directly within
svn_auth.h, that danielsh said it "broke the windows build" in IRC.
Can we have some more investigation on that problem, please, rather
than just turn a blind eye and create a new header? :-)
