As you are providing an HTTP::Request object to PoCo::Client::HTTP's
request mechanism, you can provide basic authentication through methods
on that object.

Those methods are documented in HTTP::Headers, as HTTP::Request objects
inherit from HTTP::Message, which in turn inherits from HTTP::Headers.

Have a look for the authorization_basic method in the documentation.
