       This class represents the Authorization header with the specific focus on the 'Basic' type.

       "new ( $type, $credentials )"
           The  $credentials  argument  can  either  be  a  Base64 encoded string (as would be passed in via the
           header), a HASH ref with username and password keys, or a two  element  ARRAY  ref  where  the  first
           element is the username and the second the password.

       "new_from_string ( $header_string )"
       "auth_type"
       "username"
       "password"
       "as_string"
