get_userpass_input: remove an obsolete FIXME.

Browse Source 
I just spotted this in passing, and it's out of date! The prompts_t
system no longer works by consuming user input that had already been
handed to a backend, and it now has a callback that it can use to
proactively notify a backend (or other Interactor) that its prompts
have been answered. So if we did ever want to use a separate GUI
dialog box for prompts (as the comment suggested), then we do now have
the means.

* available, because they assume that a seat is returning that
* value because it's consuming keyboard input. But a seat that
* handled this function by putting up a dialog box might want to

* want a backend method for sending that notification.)
