In Python 3, when __eq__ is defined, Python automatically provides __ne__ by negating __eq__. Explicitly defining __ne__ is redundant and unnecessary code. This removes the redundant __ne__ methods from HTTPBasicAuth and HTTPDigestAuth classes. All existing tests pass, confirming that Python's automatic __ne__ implementation works correctly.
