Bypass authentication check for /_up (#2411)
Add config variable chttpd.require_valid_user_except_for_up defaulting to false. This will allow various automated health check systems to hit /_up without having to provide a username/password pair when the chttpd.require_valid_user config setting is true. Apparently, many of these health check providers do not even allow supplying creds for such a purpose... Closes #823 Co-authored-by: Joan Touzet <wohali@users.noreply.github.com>
