the server-side of HTTP Basic Access Authentication, as described in RFC 2617.
Example usage, using the built-in checkpassword_dict function which uses a dict
as the credentials store:
userpassdict = {'bird' : 'bebop', 'ornette' : 'wayout'}
checkpassword = cherrypy.lib.auth_basic.checkpassword_dict(userpassdict)
basic_auth = {'tools.auth_basic.on': True,

HTTP Basic Access Authentication, as specified in RFC 2617.
If the request has an 'authorization' header with a 'Basic' scheme, this
tool attempts to authenticate the credentials supplied in that header. If
the request has no 'authorization' header, or if it does but the scheme is
not 'Basic', or if authentication fails, the tool sends a 401 response with
a 'WWW-Authenticate' Basic header.
Arguments:
realm: a string containing the authentication realm.
checkpassword: a callable which checks the authentication credentials.
Its signature is checkpassword(realm, username, password). where
username and password are the values obtained from the request's
'authorization' header. If authentication succeeds, checkpassword
returns True, else it returns False.
