Add User/Password Support in HTTP Handlers

Official CH changelog text

Adds the ability to configure user authentication with username and password for HTTP handlers, specifically dynamic_query_handler and predefined_query_handler.

Why it matters

This feature enhances security by allowing HTTP handlers to require user authentication. It helps prevent unauthorized access to query handlers by enabling credential-based access control.

How to use it

Set the user and password parameters in the configuration for dynamic_query_handler and predefined_query_handler. This enables authentication for those HTTP handlers, requiring clients to provide valid credentials when sending requests.
