Optionally use auth-source-search for fetching and saving password. (#181)
* Use auth-source-search for fetching and saving password
This gives users the ability to save their password to either the gpg-encrypted ~/.authinfo.gpg or
~/.authinfo so that they don't have to provide username/password each time
* Add a new custom var to decide whether to use the auth-source package or not.
