Encryption not supported #16

Description

@OneSkyWalker

My experience suggests that sms-backup.py can't support an encrypted backup{

C:\Pittman\SMS-Backup>python sms-backup.py -i Manifest.db
ERROR:root:Unable to access c:\users\ibm_ad~1\appdata\local\temp\tmpwmv22l: file is encrypted or is not a database

C:\Pittman\SMS-Backup>

I am sure that supporting encrypted backups would be quite a challenge.

Before attempting to use sms-backup.py, check to see if backups are encrypted (see https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT205220) and please note that if Encrypt iPhone backup is grayed out, it might be because your company has mandated encryption (see https://discussions.apple.com/thread/8077165). Sigh.
