Summary: HTTP Auth support for xmlrpclib

Initial Comment:
This patch adds code and docs to support the use of
HTTP/HTTPS "Basic Authorization" with xmlrpclib.  It
does this using the "http://user:pass@host:port/"
syntax, based on existing code in urllib and xmlrpclib.
 I have tested the code change with and without basic
auth on my own servers, but do not know how I could
create a reasonable addition to the test suite, since a
server connection would be required.

My patch includes a patch to Doc/lib/libxmlrpclib.tex,
but I'm not sure if I added the text in the best place.
 It may be that it should be a note in the 'seealso'
section on that page instead, but I wasn't sure if that
was correct style for the library documentation.  For
the code patch, I tried to match the style of the
surrounding code as closely as possible, including the
style used for code comments.

The patch is against current (as of this moment) Python
CVS.  Please let me know if there's any other info you
need or anything that I should change for this.  Thanks.
