@frasertweedale I rebased your PR on top of master. I hope it's ok. |

@andreabedini that's fine. Note that we do want to backport this change for maintenance releases on older branches (you know the reasons). If you prefer a variant of the patch for backports with the minimal changes and without the refactors, I can prepare that. Or else, I suppose it lands in master first and then the backports can be created (is there automation for that?) |

Please, disregard my previous message, I was wrong about the branch. Let me put a label on this so that it gets merged. |

Extract a bunch of string equality checks for the URI scheme to top-level functions.
"They're the same picture". Thus, refactor the *transport supports https* checks.
Allow the curl transport to use Basic authentication, if and only if the url scheme is HTTPS (i.e. TLS will be used). Retain the existing behaviour (force Digest scheme) for insecure requests. This change is required to support upcoming hackage-server changes. The wget transport already supports Basic authentication.

This PR updates the curl transport to support HTTP Basic authentication scheme. There are a
couple of preliminary small refactors. Best review the commits independently and in order.

3.12because I couldn't buildmaster(GHC panic, don't worry about it).It rebases cleanly onto
master.QA Notes
Ensure that authenticated operations using username and password against
