Concept of a middleware

[ktalebian]

It there a concept of a middleware for this library? What if I want certain routes to be authenticated, and would like to have an authentication handler that runs for those endpoints before the main handler is invoked.

Lua-resty-libr3 is only a router, dispatching library base on r3.

if you want to do something like authenticate, you can take a look at another project apisix.
