// BasicAuth wraps a handler requiring HTTP basic auth for it using the given
// username and password and the specified realm, which shouldn't contain quotes.
//
// Most web browser display a dialog with something like:
//
// The website says: "<realm>"
//
// Which is really stupid so you may want to set the realm to a message rather than
// an actual realm.
