auth: add basic authentication filter framework

This leverages the new lua support. See
filters/simple-authentication.lua for explaination of how this works.
There is also additional documentation in cgitrc.5.txt.

Though this is a cookie-based approach, cgit's caching mechanism is
preserved for authenticated pages.

Very plugable and extendable depending on user needs.

The sample script uses an HMAC-SHA1 based cookie to store the
currently logged in user, with an expiration date.

file that is to be filtered is available on standard input and the

auth filter::
The authentication filter receives 11 parameters:
- filter action, explained below, which specifies which action the
filter is called for
- http cookie
- http method
- http referer
- http path
- http https flag
- cgit repo
- cgit page
- cgit url
When the filter action is "body", this filter must write to output the
HTML for displaying the login form, which POSTs to "/?p=login". When
the filter action is "authenticate-cookie", this filter must validate
the http cookie and return a 0 if it is invalid or 1 if it is invalid,
in the exit code / close function. If the filter action is
"authenticate-post", this filter receives POST'd parameters on
standard input, and should write to output one or more "Set-Cookie"
HTTP headers, each followed by a newline.
Please see `filters/simple-authentication.lua` for a clear example
script that may be modified.
All filters are handed the following environment variables:
- CGIT_REPO_URL (from repo.url)
- CGIT_REPO_NAME (from repo.name)
