auth/doc.go
Add request helpers. Fix a typo in the requestErrConflict constant. Create a response type that is used to build responses before sending them down the wire. Create vars for a few common types of error responses that never change. Create a negotiate middleware function that will respond with a 406 error if the client requests an encoding that we can't support. Create an encode helper that determines the requested encoding and uses it to send the data down the wire. Move our wrap middleware from the oauth2.go file to the request.go file, where it's more likely to be looked for.

2 Package auth provides an authentication service for managing user accounts and an OAuth2 provider.
4 The service is an opinionated implementation of authentication using passphrases and the
5 code.secondbit.org/pass package to implement user credentials and accounts. Additionally, users
6 are permitted to login using their email address on record or their username interchangeably.
7 Care is also taken to be able to mitigate attacks that have already happened and plan ahead for
8 the worst case scenarios.
10 An OAuth2 provider is also built-in and provided, complete with client registration and management,
11 as well as a specification-based set of handlers for managing the issuing of grants and tokens. Token
12 validiity may be asserted through an API, or a proxy service is provided for stripping auth-specific
13 information from requests and replacing it with a trusted header containing information about the user
14 and client that authorized the request.
