New Private extension

[schulle4u]

As this has been requested in #388 and earlier, finally here is YellowPrivate, an extension for protected pages. It uses a simple content snippet to output a password form and doesn't have the same security level as Yellows user accounts. Use Password: yourpassword and Template: private in your page settings to enable password protection. Furthermore you should use Description: to remove unwanted content from page metadata, as well as a page break to avoid unwanted content in page listings. However other plugins still are able to parse page content. The plugin doesn't provide encryption or other layers of security, therefore use this with caution.

I'm not a security expert and currently don't really need such a feature in my projects, but I like the idea to have read-only pages outside Yellow's user account system, so here's my attempt to implement this. If anyone wants to improve, I'm open for issues and pull requests.

Have a nice start into 2019! :)

The plugin is now also available as website feature in the official plugin repository.

FYI @Bialy03: I've rewritten the plugin to make it more flexible and improve page protection. You can now create private pages in any template, and private pages are invisible by default.

Title: Protected page
Status: private
Password: secret

Content goes here.

The plugin uses the new multi-language error pages feature, so please update at least YellowCore before using the new version. English, german and french are supported, other languages are welcome.
