pop3: Added basic SASL XOAUTH2 support
Added the ability to use an XOAUTH2 bearer token [RFC6750] with POP3 for
authentication using RFC6749 "OAuth 2.0 Authorization Framework".
The bearer token is expected to be valid for the user specified in
conn->user. If CURLOPT_XOAUTH2_BEARER is defined and the connection has
an advertised auth mechanism of "XOAUTH2", the user and access token are
formatted as a base64 encoded string and sent to the server as
"AUTH XOAUTH2 <bearer token>".
