This patch add authentication support to the "Live Stream Server" function.

It contains two authentication methods 'Basic Authentication' and 'Digest Authentication'.

# Set the authentication method (default: 0)
# 0 = disabled 
# 1 = Basic authentication
# 2 = MD5 digest (the safer authentication)

# Authentication for the http based control. Syntax username:password
# Default: not defined (Disabled)
; stream_authentication username:password
