Summary: Allow for Creation of Masked Protocol Plugin Options

Initial Comment:
This patch allows one to create protocol plugin options which 
are masked. This is useful for storing passwords, etc. This 
patch implements functions similar to the masking functions for 
general plugin preferences. 
 
I'm submitting this for inclusion in Gaim because I've written a 
plugin which hides the NickServ or Q (for QuakeNet) 
authentication details from the user. It makes IRC feel more 
like the other protocols in Gaim. I'd like to have the 
passwords masked in the preferences to match other 
password fields in Gaim. This is the only change to Gaim I 
need for my plugin to work.
