auth: no password prompt over the dashboard's own requests
Opening a dashboard through its login page showed a 401 on /auth/login and the browser's password prompt. The page asked for its token by the browser's password first (POST /auth/login), with none to send, and the 401 carried a Basic challenge, which a browser answers with its prompt. The page now asks by its session first (POST /auth/session), then by the browser's password or the proxy's. And a 401 to a page's own requests (Sec-Fetch-Dest: empty: fetch, EventSource) carries no challenge: a page has its login of its own. Navigations and clients without the header (curl) are still challenged.
