I do not think it hurts to silently ignore a line that ends with CR,
but only because I do not think credential_from_url_gently() would
not match such a line when asked to match something without
complaining.  

In other words, isn't the new "!strchr() &&" in the condition a
no-op?

In any case, among the ones we discussed, this probably has the
least chance of unintended regression, I would think (with or
without the added "!strchr() &&" check), so let's queue it and
quickly merge it down thru 'next' to 'master'.

These are quite clear to see.  Nicely done.

What I am curious is if anything breaks around this test if you lost
the extra "!strchr() &&" check.  I suspect that this test will pass.
