   ## Current behavior:
   When building go client applications with the TC v5.1.0 v3-client library, we have observed that a login failure (such as resulting from passing incorrect login credentials) results in a looping condition, where a steady stream of login attempts are made against TO API.
   
   ## Expected behavior:
   When invalid login credentials are used, the login attempt should fail immediately, without a apparent retry loop.
   
   ## Minimal reproduction of the problem with instructions:
   Build a client app using `github.com/apache/trafficcontrol v5.1.0+incompatible`.
   Pass invalid login credentials to that app.
   
   ## Anything else:
   Confirmed that building with `github.com/apache/trafficcontrol v5.0.0+incompatible` does not reproduce the problem.

   For whoever fixes this:
   `request()` is calling `login()` if the 1st attempt returned 401. `login()` eventually makes its way back to `request()`, which gets another 401, causing it to call `login()` again, getting stuck in infinite recursion. Instead of calling `login()`, we should probably make a "raw" login request instead of calling `login()` which also adds in all the version-retrying.
