Title: Add option to trigger xhr.withCredentials without http auth

Firefox sends the username for auth even though a password was not supplied
which causes Firefox to abort before sending a preflight request for Cross-Origin
requests.

This pull request adds a withCredentials request option that allows you to set ``xhr.withCredentials`` without sending http authentication.
