Basic HTTP Authentication

Would be great to add support for basic HTTP authentication. Not sure how hard it is to add. Would love to help out but haven't been much a CFNetwork guy yet.

It's definitely something worth considering. Just that HTTP auth requires more steps, and the CFNetwork stack, while very expressive, is not very straightforward in this part—lots of information has to be kept. Might be better if there's a fork first to experiment the different ways new code/classes are inserted into the present (admittedly already quite messy) code.

LFWebAPIKit has been designed for working with web APIs that don't use HTTP auth. Contributions are welcome to extend it to include support for HTTP auth. :)
