feat(auth): use github.com/tg123/go-htpasswd library

Refactor to use battle-tested go-htpasswd library instead of custom
parser and verifier implementation. This reduces code complexity and
leverages maintained, well-tested logic.

Changes:
- Add github.com/tg123/go-htpasswd dependency
- Remove custom parser.go and verifier.go (~400 lines)
- Rewrite htpasswd.go to use library API (New/Match)
- Simplify middleware.go to use Match method
- Update tests for library integration
- Update README with library information

Features (via library):
- bcrypt, MD5, Apache MD5, SHA, SHA-256, SHA-512, crypt, plain
- Constant-time comparison
- Robust parsing edge cases

Retained:
- File/inline configuration
- File permission validation
- Structured logging
- Client IP extraction
- Proxy support

Stats:
- 610 lines of implementation (down from 995)
- Uses maintained external library for core auth logic
- 12/12 tests passing

+- **Multiple Hash Algorithm Support**: bcrypt, Apache MD5, SHA, SHA-256, SHA-512, crypt (DES), plain (via `github.com/tg123/go-htpasswd`)

 - **Security Features**:
   - File permission validation (warns on permissive permissions)
-  - Weak hash algorithm detection and warnings
-  - Constant-time password comparison (prevents timing attacks)

   - Generic error responses (no user enumeration)
