[p4] Scripting and ticket authentication

[Bob Van Zant]

I started playing with the P4PASSWD env variable just today. You can put the
result of `p4 login -p` into the P4PASSWD variable. I assume that is valid
for as long as the ticket generated by p4 login is? Anyway, once that
variable is set you can skip the actual p4 login. I think.

This might help more than I just did:
