----------------------------------------------------------

Commit 569b00f301232a4b4ce2e038ef5bdf92c3b52079 in couchdb-chttpd's branch 
refs/heads/2452-users-db-security-on-clustered-interface from [~mikewallace]
[ https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=couchdb-chttpd.git;h=569b00f ]

Only admins access _users _all_docs on 5984

When couch_httpd_auth/users_db_public is set to false and the
_users DB is on the admin interface (5986) only admins can read
the _all_docs view.

This commit creates the same behaviour on the clustered interface
(5984) when chttpd_auth/users_db_public is set to false.

> The authentication DB (default name _users) has special security semantics 
> which are currently only supported on the admin port (default 5986). Since we 
> support using the _users DB on the clustered port we should also ensure the 
> same security semantics apply there.
