patch to correct the module order

Description of problem:
mod_auth_token fails to work properly with ProxyPass and RewriteRule directives. The issue is, that mod_auth_token currently asks to be slotted before mod_alias, 
but not before other modules. If you for example use a RewriteRule on the same path, it will be applied before mod_auth_token comes into play.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
1.0.5-27.el9

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Here are 2 configuration snippets that currently fail to work with 
mod_auth_token:

<Location /protected/>
    AuthTokenSecret        "secret"
    AuthTokenPrefix        /protected/
    AuthTokenTimeout       3600
    ProxyPass              http://127.0.0.1:8000/
</Location>

<Location /protected/>
    AuthTokenSecret        "secret"
    AuthTokenPrefix        /protected/
    AuthTokenTimeout       3600
    RewriteRule            ^(.*)$ http://127.0.0.1:8000/$1 [P,F]
</Location>

Actual results:
The whole path (including the token and the timestamp hash part) is being forwarded

Expected results:
Only the "real" path is being forwarded (i.e. mod_auth_token does its job beforehand)

Additional info:
This is a known problem and an open issue at GitHub for more than 10 years: 
https://github.com/rolero/mod-auth-token/issues/16
There is also a fix provided by the original reporter. I will add the patch file for the module itself as an attachment.

Would be great if you could apply the patch and build a new release.
Thanks!
