> Enhancement to the default PropertiesFileLoginModule and Console to encrypt user passwords in users.properties.
> To do this, PropertiesFileLoginModule and Console will be updated to use the SimpleEncryption utility class, just like the deployer, to read/write passwords that have the {Simple} key in front of encrypted passwords.
> The loadProperties() method in PropertiesFileLoginModule will also be updated to rewrite the users.properties file if it detects unencrypted passwords, which will allow users to manually edit the file to update a password and then have it automatically encrypted when the next login event occurs.
