curl: add support for HTTP authentication parameters
If connecting to a web server which has authentication turned on, QEMU gets a 401 as curl has not been configured with any authentication credentials. This adds 4 new parameters to the curl block driver options 'username', 'password-secret', 'proxy-username' and 'proxy-password-secret'. Passwords are provided using the recently added 'secret' object type $QEMU \ -object secret,id=sec0,filename=/home/berrange/example.pw \ -object secret,id=sec1,filename=/home/berrange/proxy.pw \ -drive driver=http,url=http://example.com/some.img,\ username=dan,password-secret=sec0,\ proxy-username=dan,proxy-password-secret=sec1 Of course it is possible to use the same secret for both the proxy & server passwords if desired, or omit the proxy auth details, or the server auth details as required.
