Revision history for Uniform-HTTP-Auth

0.01  2026-09-13
    - Initial release.
    - Add transport-, framework-, and event-loop-agnostic HTTP authentication.
    - Add challenge parsing, malformed-input reporting, and scheme selection.
    - Add prepare_authentication() to prepare authentication field values without
      performing network I/O or request retry.
    - Add a simple origin-bound stored-credentials constructor for normal
      applications, plus callback-based dynamic credential lookup for reusable
      HTTP stacks and credential stores.
    - Add Basic authentication per RFC 7617, including UTF-8 charset handling.
    - Add Bearer authentication construction per RFC 6750.
    - Add Digest authentication per RFC 7616, including MD5, SHA-256,
      SHA-512/256, session variants, qop=auth/auth-int, UTF-8, userhash,
      cryptographically secure cnonce generation, and nonce-count state.
    - Isolate Digest state by HTTP protection space so unrelated origins do not
      share nonce counts or cnonces.
    - Preserve unknown authentication schemes for caller introspection.
    - Represent malformed remote challenges as data rather than exceptions.
    - Add complete public API POD, release documentation, distribution
      packaging, and CI/disttest coverage for Perl 5.16 and current Perl.
