feat: add basic auth - Githubissues

Trojan295 commented 2 years ago

Summary

This PR adds an option to add HTTP basic authentication to the exporter endpoint. This can be useful in case you want to secure somehow the exporter.

It also switches to gin for the HTTP server. It was easier to use the basic auth implementation from gin here.
