Summary	0026365: Fix a possible installation issue for the mantis rest api
Description	On trying out the rest api, all requests were answered with "401 API token required", although the Authorization token was transmitted. Adding the line SetEnvIf Authorization .+ HTTP_AUTHORIZATION=$0 in $MANTISROOT/api/rest/.htaccess, as suggested by https://www.cyotek.com/blog/restoring-missing-authorization-header-when-using-php, fixed the issue.
