    Add an exclude option to AuthToken middleware
    
    Allow certain paths to be excluded from the auth_token middleware check.
    The primary use I see for this option is version discovery URLs. We
    recommend that version discover urls (eg /, /v1, /v2) are accessible
    unauthenticated however the auth_token middleware is an all or nothing
    approach and will secure all requests that pass through it.
    
    This is an option I would see being set in a paste file or similar -
    rather than something that would be configured by an end
    user/administrator.
    
    SecurityImpact
    DocImpact: New option 'exclude' to auth_token middleware settings which
    will take a regular expression and, if it matches the path, allow a
    request to proceed unauthenticated.
