Request to add support for personal access token based authentication.

[riginoommen]

curl -v https://docs.example.com/rest/api/space/FOO -H "Authorization: Bearer token"

did that cURL command work for you? it did not for me. the personal access token does not seem to be of any standard bearer token format. attempts to use that command for me yielded the following error:

{"error": "Failed to parse Connect Session Auth Token"}% 

see the following url which suggests this is not the correct way to authenticate:

what worked for me was to use basic authentication where my username was my email and the password was my PAT.
This actually works fine with the current plugin with no changes.
