Overview

Optional HTTP Basic Auth, modeled on rails/mission_control-jobs' BasicAuthentication concern.

Authentication is NOT the engine's job by default — it belongs to the host's base controller (see MaquinaNewsletters.base_controller_class). This concern is a fallback for hosts whose base controller does not authenticate: it only enforces anything when http_basic_auth_enabled is true. When enabled with a configured user/password it challenges with those; when enabled without credentials it locks everything with a 401 (fail closed).
