Title: Support import from servers with authentication

Current plugin is unable to retrieve jobs from servers using authentication. I tried using `https://username:apitoken@…/` syntax without success (I think `HttpURLConnection` does not support it).

To-do list suggests using AJAX from the current browser to authenticate, but asking for a username and API token was much simpler.
