[issue12541] Accepting Badly formed headers in urllib HTTPBasicAuth

Here is a patch with the test for accepting the badly formed headers. I would like to ensure that change in the regex is fool-proof in order to accomodate this bad behavior, so that we don't break the existing stuff.

It is problem at the server end,I found that browsers thrown warning before accepting that.
