Bug 844457 - suckypasswords array increase

I increased the list of bad passwords for user's new passwords to
be checked against using the lists, http://sharetext.org/BEM, and
http://www.dragonresearchgroup.org/insight/sshpwauth-cloud.html .
While this is much better than the previous list st some point
it would probably be a good idea to change the way this works.

Title:
  suckypasswords check is very limited, could be expanded

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  When validating passwords, there is is a check against an array of really bad 
passwords:
  
https://gitorious.org/mahara/mahara/blobs/f7d9a23f0744f719fc7f75bd5d740eef6ae4d055/htdocs/auth/lib.php#line1606

  Currently the collection of bad passwords is really small. It could be 
expanded. Some resources are:
  http://www.dragonresearchgroup.org/insight/sshpwauth-cloud.html
  http://img.sjbn.co/files/500-most-used-passwords-show-as-a-tag-cloud.gif
  http://www.skullsecurity.org/wiki/index.php/Passwords

  There should be more than one level of filtering bad passwords. Some,
  such as the current suckypasswords collection, should be forced. There
  should also be an optional blacklist based on the resources above.
