[dev] weather.com block configuration

The only real outstanding issue(s) I wanted to handle on the weather.com block
was:
1. Documentation of the requirement to register for the XML feed.
2. A way for the admin to supply the partner ID and license key after
registering.
I didn't get any feedback on how to handle this, so I decided to come up with
something to at least get a discussion going :-)
There are two patches here.
1. horde/config/conf.php.dist - Comments document the requirement to register
for the XML feed, and two configuration items allow the admin to set the
partner ID and license key.
2. horde/lib/Block/weatherdotcom.php - Uses the above $conf entries for partner
ID and license key.
Any/all suggestions for accomplishing this differently will be warmly received
(and are greatly anticipated).
Thanks in advance,
Rick
