Currently, authentication is handled via manual user input.

https://github.com/icesat2py/icepyx/blob/master/icepyx/core/Earthdata.py#L88 which uses https://docs.python.org/2/library/getpass.html

Suggest enhancement to use netrc library to read and pass credentials. This will enable programmatic authentication.
