1.1 issue sweep done.

[Ben Collins-Sussman <su...@red-bean.com>]

So if you look at our issuetracker now, you'll see

  * a bunch of unmilestoned patches ready for review.
  * about six 1.1 issues
  * about twenty "1.1-consider" issues.

Anyone can jump on the patches, feel free.  But it's the last category
that's the interesting one.  My feeling is that each of these issues
is a good candidate for 1.1, probably because they are pretty
important and/or can result in great gain for little work.  (Many of
them are already started or nearly finished.)  Those are the ones
people should turn their attention to.  They need to be discussed on
this list.

Isn't the prompting function basically apr_password_get(), that is, we
didn't write it and don't control the API, and can't run anything
between the keystrokes?  We could pass a cancellation checker into
subversion/clients/cmdline/prompt.c:prompt(), but I don't see how we
could get it into apr_password_get(), where it really needs to be...

Sure.  Done as 1916 and 1917.

Travis, can you at least file this as an issue, so we don't forget about
it again?

 From one not-quite-forgotten thread in March (which I just bumped into
again a few days ago), probably two new issues are warranted.

The first is the simpler case.  Probably very simple.

At the moment, there's no way for that to happen, since the proper
  signal/cancellation func isn't even being passed into the prompting
  func. Perhaps we could add a new prompting API in svn 1.1 that takes
  such an argument.
