Add the UTF-8 charset auth-param. #52

Description

@issuefiler

function unauthorized() {
if(challenge) {
var challengeString = 'Basic'
var realmName = realm(req)
if(realmName)
challengeString += ' realm="' + realmName + '"'
res.set('WWW-Authenticate', challengeString)
}

Now that UTF-8 has become the de facto universal standard, I suggest adding the UTF-8 charset auth-param defined by RFC 7617, to the WWW-Authenticate header field value express-basic-auth produces.

WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="real", charset="UTF-8"
