Daniel Kahn Gillmor 53adc05338 mvt-ios decrypt-backup: Enable pulling password from the environment.
Specifying the password on the command line with `--password XXX`
leaves the password itself visible to any process on the machine which
can scan the process table.

On some systems (including common GNU/Linux distributions) this
visibility is possible by default.

This change should make it possible to offer the password without
putting it into the process table; rather, the user puts the password
in the environment, and specifies the name of the environment
variable, like so:

```
$ export MVT_IOS_BACKUP_PASSWORD=WronglySconeRoundnessUnruffled
$ mvt-ios decrypt-backup -d /path/to/dest /path/to/data/XXXXXXXX-YYYYYYYYYYYYYYY/
$ unset MVT_IOS_BACKUP_PASSWORD
```

or you can do so using a prefixed env var, as described in the updated
check.md documentation.
