Replacement perl script for access control with apache, mod_dav_svn and mod_perl

The perl script responsible for doing access control with apache and mod_dav_svn found in:

/extra/svn/Redmine.pm

was removed in commit:

40d394bd83bcdc0d802ff10b14a906949243874a

This was due to changes in the database format of OpenProject. Since I was in great need of this functionality I was forced to fix this script. The fix was quite easy and included the following changes to the original script:

  1. Modifying the SQL question to suit the new database format.
  2. Using the new SHA function instead of the old deprecated SHA1.
  3. Since this script now works with OpenProject databases instead of Redmine databases, I decided to rename all functions and the script to OpenProject. (I used a simple Search and Replace)

Note:
I have only tested the script for authentication against the openproject database. I have NOT tested against authentication LDAP, so no guarantees for that.

The new script is attached to this message.
