> create the userCtx. Headers name can be defined in local.ini. By thefault
> they are :
> * X-Auth-CouchDB-UserName : username, (x_auth_username in couch_httpd_auth
> section)
> * X-Auth-CouchDB-Roles : user roles, list of roles separated by a comma
> (x_auth_roles in couch_httpd_auth section)
> * X-Auth-CouchDB-Token : token to authenticate the authorization
> (x_auth_token in couch_httpd_auth section). This token is an hmac-sha1
> created from secret key and username. The secret key should be the same in
> the client and couchdb node. secret key is the secret key in couch_httpd_auth
> section of ini. This token is optional if secret key isn't defined.
