do not call note_basic_auth_failure here.

I think that the above fix ought to work, but if it doesn't you can just
steal an example from here:

  http://www.modperlcookbook.org/code/ch13/Cookbook/Authenticate.pm

and read the corresponding explanation here:

  http://www.modperlcookbook.org/chapters/ch13.pdf

specifically, you will want to read recipe 13.3 to understand how the API
interacts with the HTTP authentication challenge/response cycle.
