- Fix POD spelling error [#118545].

3.26 2016-09-30
- remove unused module Apache::AuthCookie::Autobox from dist
- remove CGI.pm dependency. CGI.pm has been removed from perl core, which
was the primary reason we used it in the first place. Replaced with
dependency on lighter weight set of three modules:

* HTTP::Body
* WWW::Form::UrlEncoded
* Hash::MultiValue

Also recommended (but not required) is WWW::Form::UrlEncoded::XS
- Add optional support for charset encoding. If you have something like

PerlSetVar MyAuthNameEncoding UTF-8

Then AuthCookie with now automatically decode parameters using the given
encoding now. AuthCookie params() data will be decoded automatically if
this is on. See details in AuthCookie module documentation. In addition
r->user will be encoded (using byte semantics) using this encoding.

***** IMPORTANT *****
If you turn this on, this could break your code. r->user() will now be
byte encoded using the given encoding. If you use usernames that contain
non-ascii characters you either need to use decoded_user(), or decode
r->user() yourself in your subclasses.

See the AuthCookie docs for more details.
- add optional support for decoding httpd.conf requires directives. This is
enabled with a RequiresEncoding setting:

PerlSetVar MyAuthNameRequiresEncoding UTF-8

Then decoded_requires($r) will return the decoded value of $r->requires
You only need this if you have non-ascii characters in your requires
directives such as:

Requires user programmør

- add decoded_user($r) method to get the value of r->user decoded using
character semantics instead of bytes. Due to the fact that r->user is a C
API method we cannot get character semantics on r->user directly. If no
Encoding directive is in effect, then this is the same as r->user.
- add encoding($r): string which returns the value of the Encoding directive
that is in effect for the current request.
