Jason A. Donenfeld b826537cb4 authentication: use hidden form instead of referer
This also gives us some CSRF protection. Note that we make use of the
hmac to protect the redirect value.

Jason A. Donenfeld d6e9200cc3 auth: add basic authentication filter framework
This leverages the new lua support. See
filters/simple-authentication.lua for explaination of how this works.
There is also additional documentation in cgitrc.5.txt.

Though this is a cookie-based approach, cgit's caching mechanism is
preserved for authenticated pages.

Very plugable and extendable depending on user needs.

The sample script uses an HMAC-SHA1 based cookie to store the
currently logged in user, with an expiration date.
