Feature request: Prevent usage without authentication

Building on #440, it'd be ideal to require a user login before they could use piped. Possibly also a solution to #439.

Yes it's possible to add some extra auth around the frontend, but that doesn't work for the API / proxy.

in the meantime this feature come, you can use a SSO on your reverseproxy (like authelia) to prevent unauthenticated access.

At the current state this would break LibreTube and Yattee, I don't think it's a good idea.

My intention was for this to be an opt-in feature.
