htpasswd is in place

--------------------------+-----------------------------
 When having a site behind htpasswd and accessing the Tools > Site Health,
 the entire linkstructure in the leftside menu is disrupted and replaced
 with /error_docs/ instead of /wp-admin/.

 Reference in the code is:

 {{{
 <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC \"-\/\/IETF\/\/DTD HTML
 2.0\/\/EN\">\n<HTML>\n<HEAD>\n<TITLE>401 Authorization
 Required<\/TITLE>\n<BASE href=\"\/error_docs\/\"><!--[if lte IE
 6]><\/BASE>
 }}}

 which is applied to the REST-API-error message in the SiteHealth script.
