Problem
Gitea fixed a basic auth bug in v1.26.2.

Upstream fix:
Solution
Review the upstream fix and determine whether Forkana is affected.
Address the following:
- Check whether Forkana uses the affected basic auth code path.
- Compare Forkana’s auth handling with the upstream patch.
- Backport the fix if applicable.
- Test Git-over-HTTP and API basic auth behavior.
- Confirm invalid credentials are rejected and valid credentials still work.
