-- Unit checks for the two auth filters, run under a standalone Lua by
-- t0505-auth.sh with the script path as the first argument and the variant,
-- inline or file, as the second. The scripts take luaossl and luaposix at
-- load, so the harness meets both with deterministic stand-ins, which keeps
-- every check about this script's own logic, the cookie layout, the expiry
-- and field rules, the redirect vetting and the action flows, rather than
-- about OpenSSL. The signing secret is pinned by replacing get_secret, and
-- the accounts and access lists are filled through each variant's own
-- channel, its commented-out examples switched on for the inline script and
-- fixture files reached through a redirected io.open for the file one. Both
-- variants carry the same data so the flow checks read identically for the
