If we deprecate the password prompt feature and remove in the next

Nightly build #1476 for cordova has succeeded!
The latest nightly has been published and you can try it out with 'npm i -g
cordova@nightly'
For details check build console at

and/or if we are willing to do a little more work, it could come from an
env variable
