core: replace option sec.crypt.passphrase_file by sec.crypt.passphrase_command (closes #141)
The command is used to read the passphrase on startup, for example using your
favorite password manager.
Note: only the passphrase is read from the program, the secured data is still
stored encrypted in sec.conf and handled by WeeChat itself.
