4f5bca8 Add support for cookie file authentication (Hielke Christian Braun) Pull request description: Use the .cookie file from the bitcoin config folder if there is no rpcpassword specified in the bitcoin.conf file. Also removes username/password from service url. Credentials are already in the authorization field. Sending them via both methods should not be necessary https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_access_authentication Tree-SHA512: cdf74f62b9918a6c8da237e6a95ceb1a6e8ab3b05e392f7f67c34f6c574a5dff5acf20a20f1564cb7746432460e7fcdc64cd3586adba6a291479872ad38071de
