Flat file authentication plugin for StackStorm Community edition

Flat file backend supports reading credentials from an Apache HTTPd htpasswd formatted file. To manage this file you can use htpasswd utility which comes with a standard Apache httpd distribution or by installing apache2-utils package on Ubuntu / Debian.
