Same opinion as Julian. This is simply a {{Basic}} problem. Other mechanisms 
aren't prone to this. Moreover, this patch is incomplete. Proxy headers are 
missing.

> Current behaviour : When https call is made with basic authentication  with  
> debug mode, authorization information which is transfered part of 
> 'Authorization' header is getting printed in log in below artifact
>   <groupId>org.apache.httpcomponents</groupId>
>   <artifactId>httpclient</artifactId>
>   <version>4.3.6</version>
> Example : 
> org.apache.http.wire - []  >> "Authorization: Basic 
> VEVTVCBLSCAwMS9TQ0hVTFVORzpzY2h1bHVuZw==[\r][\n]"
> org.apache.http.headers - [] >> Authorization: Basic 
> VEVTVCBLSCAwMS9TQ0hVTFVORzpzY2h1bHVuZw==
> Expected behaiour: 
> Though log level is debug, authorization information should not be  printed 
> in log.
> Attached httpclient.patch as proposal.
