Gluetun Control Server Authentication

Starting in Gluetun v3.4, it is required to setup authentication on the Gluetun control server routes.

See this link for information on how to set this up: https://github.com/qdm12/gluetun-wiki/blob/main/setup/advanced/control-server.md#authentication

Once configured in Gluetun, you can configure this container to use the appropriate authentication method:

• If using none auth, you do not need to provide any of the authentication environment variables
• If using basic auth, you should set the GTN_USERNAME and GTN_PASSWORD environment variables
• If using apikey auth, you should set the GTN_APIKEY environment variable
