[#329] Password supports unicode

[Parthiee]

Hello @psi-4ward , I added base64 encoding of password which addresses the issue #329 . Please look into this and let me know if it needs any change.

Nice idea but this would break all pwd-buckets with plaintext passwords

[Parthiee]

Could you explain why it would break?

If at all this breaks, would it work if I encode the password only if it is non ASCII? That way, there wouldn't be any changes made to plain text

[psi-4ward]

So you post a base64 pwd to the endpoint which validates it against the meta-data password wich is plaintext for existing buckets.

The bucket files are utf8 iirc so we could base64 only on the transport layer

an easy solution may be a check if the server password is already encoded.
