This pull request adds a new middleware function,
NewBasicAuthMiddleware
, that performs basic authentication for HTTP requests. It takes a map of users and passwords, and a realm string as input. The middleware function checks if the request contains valid basic authentication credentials. If the credentials are valid, it calls the next handler in the chain. If the credentials are invalid or missing, it sends an HTTP 401 Unauthorized response. The pull request also includes unit tests for the middleware function.Address issue #73
