[PATCH v3 3/4] http: handle proxy proactive authentication

From
NLNelson Benitez Leon <nelsonjesus.benitez@seap.minhap.es>
Date

Message-ID
<4F54D98C.2070909@seap.minhap.es>

If http_proactive_auth flag is set and there is a username but no password in the proxy url, then interactively ask for the password.

This makes possible to not have the password written down in http_proxy env var or in http.proxy config option.
