Feature Description

some gitea instances require login to explore repos

it would be nice to store the login data in a bookmark
like https://someuser:somepassword@example.com/

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Guides/Authentication

RFC 7235 defines the HTTP authentication framework, which can be used by a server to challenge a client request, and by a client to provide authentication information.

similar but different:
HTTP authentication for API #24160

this feature would conflict with "require captcha for login"
