Pass passphrase through to all duplicity calls
...
Empirical evidence (a failed cron job) shows that cleanup requires the
passphrase (so it presumably needs to decrypt metadata), and though
remove-older-than has been working fine without it, it won't do any harm
to set it in case that changes or there are any special cases.

re-do the backup script to use the duplicity program
...
Duplicity will manage the process of creating incremental backups for us.
Although duplicity can both encrypt & copy files to a remote host, I really
don't like PGP and so I don't want to use that.
Instead, we'll back up to a local directory unencrypted, then manually
encrypt the full & incremental backup files. Synchronizing the encrypted
backup directory to a remote host is a TODO.
