Patch v1 - Take care of basic authentication

FIXMEs mark some more advanced outliers like dealing with downloads and handling client certs.

But this gets basic "enter username/password for a subresource" authentication working.

Can't be related to this patch.  The only changes (besides a *relaxed* ASSERT) are in NetworkProcess code.

Did you mean "with the NetworkProcess"?

I did mean that, yes.  Will fix.

Why not use WTF::atomicIncrement?

What is the reason to not use a pointer? Not all requests even have authentication.

Great question.  I didn't know about it until now.

That said, there's no 64 bit specialization of it yet, and the Darwin specific version is already scattered about.

I'll replace them all in a single followup.

This makes sense to do.  Will change.

I think that you could get rid of this include now.
