I added code so that httpie honors .netrc when --auth-type is used. This was done by explicitly handling the .netrc rather than implicitly leaving it to the requests library. Maybe it would be good to in the future disallow reading the .netrc if the file has too many permissions as is done with some applications (this is also the default behaviour of the python library.) I also added a test to check that the behaviour does work.
