Hello everyone,

While working on the new UI and fixing some issues in the web-target, I
noticed some "limitations" of the MultiAuthPlugin for web clients that I
would like to change in Solr 10.

SOLR-17930 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-17930> describes the
issue in detail, and PR #3703
<https://github.com/apache/solr/pull/3703> contains
the improvement proposed. It should have a small impact for existing
consumers. With the fix the new UI (and other web-clients) are capable of
displaying multiple authentication options simultaneously when
MultiAuthPlugin is used (once implemented), and also support xBasic in
MultiAuthPlugin for BasicAuthPlugin, so that no uncontrolled browser prompt
is shown.

More details in issue and PR. I would appreciate feedback and reviews.

Best,
Christos
