Changeset 2599 for trunk/gui/scripts

Message:

Added the Rappture::bugreport::sanitize method, so that sensitive info
in the errorInfo can be blanked out. This can be used, for example, to
expunge passwords before an error dialog pops up. Added for SynchroNEES,
although it may be useful for other situations too.

+# Removes any sensitive information in the bug report.  This is useful

+# string (or ******** by default).  This is usually called in some sort
