Add config argument to more password.Password invocations. The work done to allow password_pbkdf2_default_rounds to be overridden for testing requires that calls to password.Password include a config argument. This was needed because using the real value more than quadrupled testing runtime. However there are still a few places where config was not being set when Password was called. I think this fixes all of the ones that are called from a function that have access to a db.config object. The remaining ones all call Password(encrypted=x). This results in Password.unpack() being called. If x is not a propertly formatted password string ("{scheme}...", it calls encodePassword. It then should end up raising the ConfigNotSet exception. This is probably what we want as it means the shape of "x" is not correct. I don't understand why Password.unpack() attempts to encrypt the value of encrypted if it doesn't match the right form. According to codecov, this encryption branch is being used, so somewhere x is of the wrong form. Hmmm....

	documentation.

================
Roundup Glossary
================


class
   a definition of the properties and behaviour of a set of items
classname
   the name of a class. It must start with a letter, end with a letter
   or "_", and only have alphanumerics and "_" in the middle.
db (or hyperdb)
   a collection of items
designator
   a combined class + itemid reference to any item in the
   hyperdb. E.g. issue26. Note that form values can include
   something that looks like a designator composed of a classname, a
   dash '-', and a number. E.g. file-1. These
   are used to create new instances of a class via the web interface.
itemid
   a numeric reference to a particular item of one class
item
   a collection of data that forms one entry in the hyperdb.
property
   one element of data that makes up an item. In Roundup, the set 
   of item properties may be changed as needed - even after the 
   tracker has been initialised and used in production.
schema
   the definition of all the classes that make up an tracker
tracker
   the schema and hyperdb that forms one issue tracker
tracker home
   the physical location on disk of a tracker
