authPasswordValue = w scheme s authInfo s authValue w
scheme = %x30-39 / %x41-5A / %x2D-2F / %x5F
; 0-9, A-Z, "-", ".", "/", or "_"
authInfo = schemeSpecificValue
authValue = schemeSpecificValue
schemeSpecificValue = *( %x21-23 / %x25-7E )
; printable ASCII less "$" and " "
s = w SEP w
w = *SP
SEP = %x24 ; "$"
SP = %x20 ; " " (space)
The `scheme` describes the mechanism.
The `authInfo` is often base64-encoded salt.
The `authValue` is often a base64-encoded value
derived from the password(s).
