Bug 22522 - Update API specs' access in Auth.pm

With newer versions of Mojolicious and its plugins, endpoints' specs
could no longer be accessed, thus bypassing authorization checks
and failing to validate query parameters.

Test plan:
1. Without being logged in to Koha, access an endpoint directly
   (such as /api/v1/patrons/{patron_id})
2. Notice results are received (which is bad since we're not authenticated)
3. Try again with an endpoint that accepts query parameters
   (such as /api/v1/patrons?firstname=something)
4. Notice that the query is not accepted (even with correct parameters)

5. Apply the patch

6. Repeat step 1
7. Notice that the access is denied
8. Login as a user with proper access rights
9. Repeat step 1
10. Notice that you can now get results
11. Repeat step 3
12. Notice that the query is now accepted
13. Repeat step 3 but with an absurd parameter
14. Notice the query is correctly rejected

15. Ideally, check if other API calls were not broken
