Description
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
This feature request is derived from the Fluentd Mailing list question.
* [http auth for in_http plugin](https://groups.google.com/g/fluentd/c/5dsZR4NCUII)
fluentd supports Basic Auth by http output plugin,
https://docs.fluentd.org/output/http#less-than-auth-greater-than-section
but it seems that http input plugin doesn't support Basic Auth.
Because of this inconsistency, it can't send directly between two fluentd instances.
**Describe the solution you'd like**
Implement Basic Auth support in input http plugin side.
**Describe alternatives you've considered**
N/A
Or give up to use Basic Auth and use an alternative method (TLS encryption)
**Additional context**
