Workaround to support:
mimblewimble/grin-wallet#183
In this case, the Wallet's owner API and Foreign API are being run on the same port, which means that authentication and the owner API secret need to be shared with everyone using the owner API. This change adds an option to specify a particular uri for the authentication to ignore, allowing the wallet to run 2 JSON-RPC endpoint routes without requiring authentication for one of them.
Don't think this opens any holes as this checks for the entire path from the root, but would appreciate a once-over to confirm.
