bug#14370: [PATCH] Write out HTTP Basic auth headers correctly

[Atom X Zane <atomx@deadlyhead.com>]

HTTP Basic authorization headers are not output correctly, leaving off
the user credentials in the Authorization: header.

Test case:

(let ((req (build-request
            (build-uri
             'http
             #:host "example.com")
            #:headers '((authorization
                         basic . "dXNlcm5hbWU6cGFzc3dvcmQ=")
                                      ))))
  (write-request req (current-output-port)))

Expected output:

> GET / HTTP/1.1
> Host: example.com
> Authorization: basic dXNlcm5hbWU6cGFzc3dvcmQ=

Actual output:

> GET / HTTP/1.1
> Host: example.com
> Authorization: basic


As you can see, the user credentials aren't actually written out,
causing the server to return a "401 Authorization required" response.  I
have included a patch which remedies this problem.

* module/web/http.scm: modify write-credentials to display the
  base64-encoded concatenation of username and password if the
  authorization model is 'basic
