Description
when the "authz_file" file configured in trac.ini is missing, or in my case misspelled I think a debug message saying "File not found" is in order.. rather than just:
DEBUG: Opening subversion file-system at /some/subversion/repository with scope /
WARNING: 403 Forbidden (Insufficient permissions to access /)

Well, if the authz_file option is missing or blank, it should return a dummy Authorizer that just gives permission.
Furthermore, returning 403 Forbidden if the authz file can't be read is also the behavior in Subversion, though perhaps it would be a good idea to check if the file exists first and log an error (otherwise ConfigParser will just treat it like the file exists and is empty).
