The Pinning Services API standard mandates Bearer token authentication.
This adds JWT bearer token authentication to the IPFS Cluster REST and PINSVC
APIs.
The basic_auth_credentials configuration option needs to be not null and have
at least one username/passwords entry.
A user authenticated via Basic Auth can then "POST /token" and obtain a json
object:
```json { "token" : "<JWTtoken>" } ```
The JWT token has the "iss" (issuer) field set to the Basic auth user that
authorized its creation and is HMAC-signed with its password.
When basic-auth-credentials are set, the APIs will verify that requests come
with either Basic Auth authorization header or with a Bearer token
authorization header.
Bearer tokens will be decoded and the signature will be verified against the
password of the issuer.
At the moment we provide no support to revoke tokens, set "expiration date",
"not before" etc, but this may come in the future.
This is a preparatory PR to add additional APIs (Pinning Service API) easily
to cluster.
Instead of copy-pasting most of what the REST API does, I have refactored so
that the whole configuration, routing and request-handling utilities can be
re-used.
The worst part has been to divide the test between tests that test core
(common.API) functionality and tests that test specific REST API endpoint
functionality. I could not get away without an additional common/test package
to provide functions that are used from both places. This is a side effect of
testing both http and libp2p endpoints for every request etc.
