Don't use raw_input() to ask for the password; this puts the password

Don't catch interrupts in getpass() -- the finally clause will reset
...
the tty and the caller can deal with the interrupt.
In the windows version, recognize ^C and raise KeyboardInterrupt (not
sure if this is needed, but can't hurt).

Another new utility: getpass() prompts for a password, with echo off.
...
Also contains getuser(), which returns the username (not prompting though).
These work on Unix and Windows!
