[PATCH 1/2] pwclient: accept more than one project in ~/.pwclientrc

[Yann E. MORIN]

From: "Yann E. MORIN" <yann.morin.1998 at free.fr>

Currently, given the format of ~/.pwclientrc, pwclient can only
really act on a single project, as ~/pwclientrc can only contain
the configuration for a single project.

Although the -p options comes in handy to specify a project
different from the one configured in ~/.pwclientrc, this only works
if it is hosted on the same server. As soon as one needs to switch
server, it is necessary to edit ~/pwclientrc.

This can be quite inefficient when dealing with many projects, hosted
on different servers.

Change the format of ~/.pwclientrc so it is possible to define more
than one project, and for each project, specify an URL and credentials.

The new format is like:

    [options]
    default=project-A

    [project-A]
    url=http://my.patchwork.server/path/to/xmlrpc
    username=that-is-me
    password=secret

    [other-project]
    url=http://you.get/the/idea
    username=someone
    password=1234

This has the advantage of not changing the options to pwclient, so
the user experience is unmodified.
