authentication

@dobesv, thanks for the updates. I agree with limiting the scope of the
tests.
Looks like the failure above is due to something in this PR. If you can take
a look at the issue, we'll be good to go from my perspective.
```
[ERROR] Failures:
[ERROR]
TestHtpasswdFileUserAuthenticator.detectsChanges:114->tryCredentials:145
Expected connect to fail because of incorrect username / password combination,
but it succeeded

> Currently plain login using PAM as its user database. However, in a
> containerized or server environment the passwd file is generally kept static,
> so some other mechanism for managing users is preferred. Also, pam does not
> by default come with an easy to way to check passwords other than via the
> passwd/shadow files.
> It would be great if there was another authentication method included in
> drill that was easier to use in a containerized environment.
> Reading the usernames and password from a specific file would probably be the
> simplest mechanism.
