It basically checks for the presence of password line in grub.conf of the guest image and if this line is present, it supports both clear text and md5 versions of the password. Editing the grub entries and command-line are disabled when some password is set in domain's grub.conf file but the password was not entered yet. Also, new option to press 'p' in interactive pygrub has been added to allow entering the grub password. It's been tested on x86_64 with PV guests and was working fine. Also, the countdown has been stopped after key was pressed, ie. the user is probably editing the boot configuration. Signed-off-by: Michal Novotny <minovotn@redhat.com>
