url-auth, auth-sources and .authinfo.gpg

[T.V Raman]

There appears to be inconsistency in behavior between auth-sources
(info ) the auth-sources implementation and module url-auth --- See
below.

Info: auth.info (node: help for users)
shows this example:
machine yourmachine.com:80 port http login testuser password testpass

url-auth uses the above format after parsing the url when it calls
(url-do-auth-source-search server type :user)
So http://yourmachine.com  becomes

server: yourmachine.com:80 type http

But auth-source fails to find the token.

If you call auth-source-search  like so:
(auth-source-search :host "yourmachine.com:80" :port "http") ;;; or
:port 80

it fails.
This call works:
(auth-source-search :host "yourmachine.com" :port "http")
