Fix SF #640094 , on win32 getpass runs into unix_getpass
...
Make sure we have a UNIX-compatible termios.
Apparently, McMillan Installer made a termios on windows
which caused unix_getpass() to be used instead of win_getpass().
Will backport.

win_getpass(): if sys.stdin is not sys.__stdin__, use
...
default_getpass(). This should prevent hanging when it is called in
IDLE.
Fixes SF bug #455648 .

print a warning if the password will be echoed.
...
At import time, getpass will be bound to the appropriate
platform-specific function. If the platform's echo-disabler is not
available, default_getpass, which prints the warning, will be used

Do the check for lacking sys.stdin.fileno() *before* testing for
...
Windows. If sys.stdin doesn't appear to be a real file (characterized
by having a working fileno()), don't use any console specific methods
-- go straight to the default.

Don't use raw_input() to ask for the password; this puts the password

Don't catch interrupts in getpass() -- the finally clause will reset
...
the tty and the caller can deal with the interrupt.
In the windows version, recognize ^C and raise KeyboardInterrupt (not
sure if this is needed, but can't hurt).

Another new utility: getpass() prompts for a password, with echo off.
...
Also contains getuser(), which returns the username (not prompting though).
These work on Unix and Windows!
