> Currently we can synchronize cleartext passwords from external resources. However, we can't handle non-cleartext passwords, as they get treated as if they are plaintext passwords when imported into Syncope, and hence hashed again according to user.cipherAlgorithm().
> This task is to treat an imported password as hashed according to a give cipher algorithm configured on the connector (for example via 'Password Cipher Algorithm' for the DB Connector). 
> This is specific to each individual connector, as for example for the DB Connector, it might just be a hashed value stored in a table, whereas for LDAP it'll be of the form "CIPHER}VALUE" etc.
> Note that we we cannot refer to any specific connector bundle from inside the SyncopeSyncResultHandler, hence we should find the cleanest place to encapsulate the following logic:
> if (password.isClearText()) {
> // do as currently done
> } else {
>   if (connector.isLDAP()) {
>    // extract cipher and value
>   } else if (connector.isDBTable()) {
>    // treat value as ciphered with the cipher defined in connector configuration
>   } else {
>     ...
>   }
> }
