personalized users/passwords for Icecast2 mount points

[GoogleCodeExporter]

ok, i made it a litle long so i will put the short part first:

add a way to change the source username in icecast2 streams

whi?... there you go...


i dont know there support for perzonalized  user/password for icecast2 streams, 
or how to use it in edcast if there is.

at icecast2 server is configured as 

<mount>
        <mount-name>/stream.ogg</mount-name>
        <username>othersource</username>
        <password>hackmemore</password>
</mount>

if it nice if it is given support, i havent seen  sources that give it
beside VLC (that is not very user friendly, but suport video streaming)

this plus fallback options, give administratos of the radio,  a safe way to 
temporaly "interrupt" transmitions.
next is the configuration to a /admin mount that "steals" the listeners from 
/stream

<mount>
      <mount-name>/admin</mount-name>
      <fallback-mount>/stream</fallback-mount>
      <fallback-override>1</fallback-override>
      <hidden>1</hidden>
</mount>

but is a litle risky to have it, if is not private,

for the one that dont know, normal stream conection use "source" as user as 
default:

http://source:source_password@host:port/mount

when is  configured at mount it is:

http://mount_user:mount_password@host:port/mount

since icecast 2.3.3 source url auth is official :D!
meaning that the username field .. is a little more important
