    The encoding of the password is one if None, 'SHA' or 'plaintext'. The
    encodePassword function is used to actually encode the password from
    plaintext. The None encoding is used in legacy databases where no
    encoding scheme is identified.

    The scheme is stored with the encoded data in the database:
        {scheme}data

    Example usage:
    >>> p = Password('sekrit')

    1
    >>> p != 'not sekrit'
    1
    >>> 'sekrit' == p

# $Log: not supported by cvs2svn $
# Revision 1.3  2001/10/20 11:58:48  richard
# Catch errors in login - no username or password supplied.
# Fixed editing of password (Password property type) thanks Roch'e Compaan.
#
# Revision 1.2  2001/10/09 23:58:10  richard
# Moved the data stringification up into the hyperdb.Class class' get, set
# and create methods. This means that the data is also stringified for the
# journal call, and removes duplication of code from the backends. The
# backend code now only sees strings.
#
# Revision 1.1  2001/10/09 07:25:59  richard
# Added the Password property type. See "pydoc roundup.password" for
# implementation details. Have updated some of the documentation too.
