Remarks
Stores HTTP authentication credentials for a given host and realm to the WebViewDatabase instance.
To use HTTP authentication, the embedder application has to implement WebViewClient#onReceivedHttpAuthRequest, and call HttpAuthHandler#proceed with the correct username and password.
The embedder app can get the username and password any way it chooses, and does not have to use WebViewDatabase.
Notes: <li> WebViewDatabase is provided only as a convenience to store and retrieve http authentication credentials. WebView does not read from it during HTTP authentication. </li> <li> WebView does not provide a special mechanism to clear HTTP authentication credentials for implementing client logout. The client logout mechanism should be implemented by the Web site designer (such as server sending a HTTP 401 for invalidating credentials). </li>
