allow "always:" prefix in $SSH_ASKPASS
This patch adds support for certain prefixes in $SSH_ASKPASS:
* "always:" always use the given program to ask for a passphrase,
never use the tty/stdin
* "never:" always use tty/stdin to ask for a passphrase, fail if the
caller requestes ssh-askpass via RP_USE_ASKPASS
* "auto:" or no prefix: automatically determine whether to use
ssh-askpass, like before
The ssh-askpass program can be specified after the colon, or as the
whole of $SSH_ASKPASS, if there is no prefix. If the program
specification is empty, the compiled in default is used via
_PATH_SSH_ASKPASS_DEFAULT. If $SSH_ASKPASS is unset this is equivalent
to $SSH_ASKPASS set to the empty string.
Apart from the the prefixes, this differs in how it treats an empty
$SSH_ASKPASS; previously it would blindly execute the empty string, now
it will use the compiled in default for ssh-askpass. This is what was
always done for unset $SSH_ASKPASS.
