Description

Describe the bug Web client support for digest authentication for Monero RPC

Expected behavior Add custom support for digest auth

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study the existing WebClient implementation in the codebase and the standard digest authentication protocol (RFC 2617). Implement digest authentication by intercepting the 401 response, parsing the WWW Authenticate header, computing the response hash, and retrying the request with the Authorization header.
