Cannot set basic auth on a path with a wildcard

Thank you. the issue been committed.

I added a different patch than #3:

• basic_auth_path_matches_current() is replaced by a function that resolves to the menu path, using menu items instead of the path.
• the 'return TRUE' just below this line has been replaced by a menu access check that occurred later in the code, because... basically that seemed better. (Though the first bullet point on its own is the significant thing.)

I discussed the patch outside of this queue, because - well, please see the release notes → .

Then,

• in the process, I somehow was made maintainer of this module.
• unfortunately there was a three year delay / I forgot about things.

To repeat my previous message: patch #3 can/should be discussed in #3063585: path is not registered in system. → instead.
