Coverage of WWW Authenticate?

[lattice0]

I'm trying to find information about authentication mechanisms supported by this library, and I found Basic and Bearer:

https://github.com/seanmonstar/reqwest/blob/c6eb2c4fcbc3934b119772e0997d91671ff68dc7/src/blocking/request.rs#L275

On bearer, it looks like I need to put my own digest information, which means that in this library I cannot simply put username and password and expect a server that has MD5 digest information to work, right?

This is the highest level library available so I guess there's no way to do this in Rust currently for HTTP?

I'm working on a digester for WWW Authenticate but I thought it was better to rely on one already implemented, but I couldn't find. If needed I can help to make it work here.
