Add minetest.check_password_entry callback

Gives a convenient way to check a player's password.

This entirely bypasses the SRP protocol, so should be used
with great care.

This function is not intended to be used
in-game, but solely by external protocols, where no
authentication of the minetest engine is provided, and
also only for protocols, in which the user already gives the
server the plaintext password.

Examples for good use are the classical http form, or irc,
an example for a bad use is a password change dialog inside
formspec.

Users should be aware that they lose the advantages of the SRP
protocol if they enter their passwords for servers outside the
normal entry box, like in in-game formspec menus,
or through irc /msg s,

This patch also fixes an auth.h mistake which has mixed up the
order of params inside the decode_srp_verifier_and_salt function.
