CLOUDSTACK-1734: Make SHA1 default password encoding mechanism

Description:

        Making SHA256SALT the default encoding algorithm to encode
        passwords when creating/updating users.

        Introducing a new configurable list to allow admins to
        separately configure the order of preference for encoding
        and authentication schemes.

        Since passwords are now sent by clients as clear text,
        fixing the Plain text authenticator to check against the
        password passed in rather than its md5 digest.
