Implemented cookie-based authentication to the API. Created timestamper module to start the application. Added cookie-based authentication to ts_api. Added utility methods to ts_api: * make_json_400/1 and make_json_400/1 * make_json_401/1 and make_json_401/2 * parse_json_body/1 reads a JSON object from a HTTP request body. Implemented ts_api_session module to manage api user sessions. Fixed ts_entry:list* methods to be 0-indexed. Removed the ts_json:ejson_to_record/1 implementation for ts_user records. Decided that ts_user records are never trusted from the client, manipulation of fields such as pwd, username will be restricted to app pages. Changed the password hashing algorithm. Now uses SHA1(pwd + 256bit salt). Want to use bcrypt, investingating cross-platform bcrypt implementation. Fixed yaws.conf config file. 2011-02-07 08:56:07 -06:00			`POST /ts_api/login HTTP/1.0`
