buildChallengeResponse: SASL parameter is incorrectly set for Tinkerpop

[codepope]

When the BuildChallengeResponse is triggered it sets the SASL key as "SASL":

https://github.com/jbmusso/gremlin-javascript/blob/master/gremlin-client/src/GremlinClient.js#L246

But, examining the Tinkerpop server side, it is looking for the key in lower case "sasl". The difference means the server sees an authentication challenge response with no parameters and returns a 401 Unauthenticated.

I suggest changing the line into:

    var saslbase64=new Buffer('\0' + this.user + '\0' + this.password).toString('base64');
    var args = { sasl: saslbase64 };

Which also does a base64 encoding of the parameters to make them more resilient to string processing and encoding.

Thanks for catching this. I'll try to post a fix this weekend.

Hi @jbmusso , we are also having the same problem and the suggested change by @codepope works :) . I'm asking politely if you are currently working on it or is this something we could help by doing the PR. Thanks

Looks like this can be closed! Which also means #90 can be closed!
