The core functionality change in this series (passing through
'WWW-Authenticate' headers to credential requests) didn't change much
between v7 and v8, and what was updated was a net improvement [1].
Otherwise, the new test infrastructure is concise and made for an easy
re-review; I had one small suggestion for patch 1 [2], but it's not critical
enough on its own to hold this series up. I think this could probably be
merged to 'next' as-is, but a final re-roll with some of the minor fixups
suggested in other reviews wouldn't hurt either. 

Thanks again for the time & effort you've put into perfecting these patches!
