Support http digest authentication for IP camera access

[pbhenson]

Currently zoneminder only supports http basic authentication for connecting to IP cameras. Some cameras, in particular the samsung SNO-5080R, only support http digest authentication and hence zoneminder is unable to work with them.

I suggest we remove all the http code for remote cameras and stick with a library that does it better, such as libcurl, which supports digest authenication. This will make the code smaller and easier to maintain.

I like that idea.
