turning on HTTP basic auth

Since basic auth can't be set via .htaccess files (at best, these files can 
prevent access to the stylesheets), the example vhost config we ship in 
ext/passenger/ should include the following commented-out block: 

    #        <Location "/">
    #            AuthType basic
    #            AuthName "Puppet Dashboard"
    #            Require valid-user
    #            AuthBasicProvider file
    #            AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/passwords
    #        </Location>

Additionally, we should delete the `AllowOverride AuthConfig` line, since it 
doesn't allow users to accomplish anything useful.
