HTTP Basic Auth for Routes

[Anonyfox]

As a developer using the seagull framework, I want to protect some routes (but not all) of my app with http basic auth. Desired usage is within a route class like this:

import { Route } from '@seagull/routes'

export default class extends Route {
  static method = 'get'
  static path = '/'
  static auth = { basic: {[{ name: 'john', password: 'supersecret' }]} }

  async handler() {
    this.render('Index', {})
  }
}

This way, multiple name/password combinations are configurable easily. Additionally, the object used in the auth property can be imported from any module or function, thus sharing a common object between routes is easily possible if needed.
