LYNX-DEV Proxy password patch

[Frederick P Herrmann]

Lynx 2.8 has the new -pauth option, but it doesn't provide a way to
specify a username and a blank password.  (I have to deal with a
firewall so configured.)

With the simple patch below, -pauth=user: specifies a blank
password, and -pauth=user leaves the password unspecified.  Same
for -auth, while we're at it.
