[PATCH] clarify history of htpasswd(1) in its manpage

[Raf Czlonka]

Hi all,

Just gone through htpasswd(1)'s man page and noticed this in the AUTHORS 
section:

Florian Obser  implemented htpasswd from scratch
after httpd was removed from OpenBSD base. 

To those not familiar with OpenBSD's release history, this may seem
wrong (after all, httpd *is* in base) or misleading at the very least.

What do you think about clarifying it ever so slightly?

Regards,

Raf
