Support Icons behind a Basic Auth Flow #26

Open Nikey646 opened 5 years ago

Nikey646 commented 5 years ago

Some websites have a Basic Auth implementation that prevents YAFD from grabbing an icon that would be in the HTML after being authenticated. The username and password are already there, so there is no reason not to automatically authenticate when trying to grab the icon.

For obvious security and privacy reasons, this should be behind an option that is disabled to default.
