Configurable Auth Token Location.

[Muxoid]

Description

I would like to be able to use cookies for authenticating instead of having a plain header so that it is sent automatically with each request. This would be made easier with a request like this:

curl --location --request GET '127.0.0.1:3000/api/user/current'
--header 'Content-Type: application/json'
--Cookie 'Authorization=Bearer TOKEN'

instead of the current:

curl --location --request GET '127.0.0.1:3000/api/user/current'
--header 'Content-Type: application/json'
--header 'Authorization: Bearer TOKEN'

At the moment there is no easy way to customize this.

Expected Behavior

To be able to use cookies to authenticate to be able to simplify the client-side authentication logic. Making this a config option would make the framework more flexible.

Additional Context

I am currently working with Loco and HTMX, therefore I render simple pages and I would like to use the built-in authentication methods without client-side JS.
