Title: HTTP Basic Endpoint Authentication

Added HttpBasicEndpointAuth authentication provider, which
uses a HTTP resource to determine if a user may log in. The
username and password are used for 401 Authentication required
challenges.

This provides an easy way to integrate with existing authentication systems.

* Tests use FlexMock to avoid unnecessary database and network
interaction.
* Embedded test server so real server tests aren't externally dependent.
* Added documentation in docs/.
