Subject: [bug#52162] [PATCH] gnu: subversion: Add --enable-plaintext-password-storage flag

I’ve read the discussion that ends with an email[1] by Nathan
Hartman expressing support for enabling the feature but disabling
it by default in configuration. Hence I think it would be
reasonable to wait for a new release addressing it. In the
meantime users can define their own package variant with this
configure flag added.
It doesn’t need to be changed in Guix itself, because this only
affects users of the package, not other packages that have
subversion as an input. So it’s enough to add a new leaf package.
As a compromise I think it would be acceptable to add a separate
subversion-plaintext (or whatever) package variant, which will be
superseded by the official subversion package as soon as a new
release is made.
