Description

If I create an etc/local.d/10-admins.ini file with the following text:

[admins]
admin = pass

and (re)start CouchDB, the password gets hashed.

But if I create an etc/default.d/10-admins.ini with the same content, the password is not hashed on restart. In either case, the admin user is recognized by the config system.

rnewson I think you implemented this code, would you take a look?
