Description of the change

The upload_to_launchpad.py script stopped working, as according to wgrant Basic auth was disabled a week or so ago. He pointed me at the right area of the launchpad api instead, which this branch updates the script to use instead. The main differences are than instead of needing to type your sso password three times, there's the once-off browser auth step, which is good. Also, the whole file gets wrapped in a mime message in python and there's no progress indicator any more, which is bad. Don't think that can be improved on unfortunately. However, the prospect of doing a full upload just to have it rejected is gone at least.

Thought I'd pushed this on Friday, but apparently not. So, merge proposal instead so that interested parties can see the diff.

Could you have a look at putting a generalized form of this into
lptools, if generalizing it is not too much work?

I was referring to a more generalised form in lptools to write this. That only expects tarballs, but does much more around creating releases and adding the metadata, whereas this really just does some bzr-specific logic then splats the files.
