Title: Add FTP Explorer (FTPx) post->gather->credentials module

This module finds saved login credentials for the
FTP Explorer (FTPx) FTP client for Windows.

Tested on FTP Explorer version 10.5.19

Nothing special about this module.

FTP Explorer used to (poorly) encrypt and store
FTP credentials in the registry back in 2000.
(CVE-2000-0214)

Now in 2012 the credentials are stored in clear text in
the user's application data directory. I guess they gave
up.
