[Yum-devel] enable yum to pass http data to repository

[Bryan Mills]

This is a patch to enable yum to pass http data to the yum repository.  
Thanks to the recent changes in urlgrabber this is easy.

My need was to enable secure access to a local yum repository.

Example repository configuration:
[testrepo]
name=Test Repository
baseurl=http://foo/bar
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
http_data=login=bryan&passwd=<secret>

A similar thing should be done to enable http authentication but that 
involves a bit more work.
