AuthPlugOptional (auth_plug v1.5.2)
AuthPlugOptional handles any route where authentication is optional
e.g. if you're building a CMS where content is public
but seeing comments requires auth, the same page can show different
content depending on if the person has logged in or not.
Please see README.md for for optional auth usage.

Functions
call/2 is invoked to handle each HTTP request which auth_plug protects.
If the conn contains a valid JWT in Authentication Headers, URL or Cookie,
then continue to the optionally protected route with the conn.assigns.person
defined so that the controller can determine what content to show the person.
NOTE: this plug does NOT set the HTTP Status on a request, that is left to you.
init/1 returns options unmodified
