Digst: Add microseconds into nounce calculation
When using only 1 second precision, curl doesn't create new cnonce values quickly enough for all uses. For example, issuing the following command multiple times to a recent Tomcat causes authentication failures: curl --digest -utest:test http://tomcat.test.com:8080/manager/list This is because curl uses the same cnonce for several seconds, but doesn't increment the nonce counter.  Tomcat correctly interprets this as a replay attack and rejects the request. When microsecond-precision is available, this commit causes curl to change cnonce values much more frequently. With microsecond resolution, increasing the nounce length used in the headers to 32 was made to further reduce the risk of duplication.
