MediaWiki HTTP Basic Auth Session Provider

This provider gets the username from HTTP Basic Authorization header.

Tested with MediaWiki 1.39

WARNING: This provider is insecure, it expects a higher-level HTTP server (Apache, Nginx, etc.) to verify the credentials.

Installation:
- Copy BasicAuthSessionProvider.php to $IP/includes/session/
- Replace or update $wgSessionProviders configuration: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgSessionProviders
