Title: [Devel] Allows users to enabled HTTP-Basic-Auth using a .auth file.

After a request in the IRC channel, I decided to allow users to enable connect.basicAuth for their site.

To do so, they'll have to create a .auth file in the app root directory containing valid users+passwords like this:

```
alice:herpassword
bob:hispassword
...
```

If the .auth file is not existing, there is no auth at all.
P.S. I am not sure, if the directory is the best choice. I am happy for any feedback / corrections, as I am new to meteor.js
