FEAT: Auth via proxy header

[snwnde]

Edit upon query of @madeofpendletonwool

What I meant by "auth via proxy header" is for PinePods to log the user in with the identity sent from a trusted reverse proxy. For example, in Authelia, this is known as Trusted Headers SSO.

This would allow easier auth into web interface, while the clients still need to authenticate themselves using the api keys as before.

Hi there — could you please provide more details about what you mean by “auth via proxy header” and what specific behavior you’re requesting? As-is, this issue doesn’t have enough information to act on.

Pinepods works on a system of api keys for auth rather than passing user pass on each request. Some other auth method would need to support that.

If you don’t clarify, I’ll close this issue out in a few days.
