[bug][7.7] Readonly password field DNU

In VW 7.7 if a password field is installed as read only there will be a DNU because initializeForPassword is not understood by ReadOnlyTextEditorController.

Admittedly a read only password field is a bit of a strange beast but I’d argue it should not fail in this way and it didn’t in 7.6. Adding initializeForPassword as a no-op avoids the DNU.

Implementing initializeForPassword as a no-op allows copy/cut of the
passord.

suggestion:

initializeForPassword
self menuHolder: (ValueHolder with: Menu new).
dispatchTable := self getDispatchTable.
dispatchTable bindValue: #ignoreInputKey: to: Ctrlx modifiers:
#(#control).
dispatchTable bindValue: #ignoreInputKey: to: Ctrlc modifiers:
#(#control).

Thank you I should have looked at this more closely. Doing as you
suggest works perfectly.
