Would something like this make sense? A short patch that adds
`doc-view-pdf-password-protected-p', and an extra option to pass to
Ghostscript (-sPDFPassword=) when the command is invoked (only when the
PDF file is password protected). I tried it out by creating a
password-protected PDF using LibreOffice Writer, and then opening it
with find-file.
