fixup! http: add an "auto" mode for http.emptyauth

Note: we keep a "black list" of authentication methods for which we do
not want to enable http.emptyAuth automatically. A white list would be
nicer, but less robust, as we want to support linking to several cURL
versions and the list of authentication methods (as well as their names)
changed over time.

[jes: actually added the "auto" handling, excluded Digest, too]

This fixes #1034
