The approach for allowing authorization by user or IP introduced in r956387,
etc. causes problems because the authentication module calls note_*_auth_failure if authentication fails. This is inappropriate if access is later allowed because of the IP. So, instead of calling the auth_checker hook even if authentication failed, we introduce a new access_checker_ex hook that runs between the access_checker and the check_user_id hooks. If an access_checker_ex functions returns OK, the request will be allowed without authentication. To make use of this, change mod_authz_core to walk the require blocks in the access_checker_ex phase and deny/allow the request if the authz result does not depend on an authenticated user. To distinguish a real AUTHZ_DENIED from an authz provider from an authz provider needing an authenticated user, the latter must return the new AUTHZ_DENIED_NO_USER code. git-svn-id: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/trunk@964156 13f79535-47bb-0310-9956-ffa450edef68
