adds some configuration options for using an HTTP proxy, which can
cache hits from multiple sites (good for status.net-like services, for example).

Settings for the HTTP client.
ssl_cafile: location of the CA file for SSL. If not set, won't verify
SSL peers. Default unset.
curl: Use cURL <http://curl.haxx.se/> for doing HTTP calls. You must
have the PHP curl extension installed for this to work.
proxy_host: Host to use for proxying HTTP requests. If unset, doesn't
do any HTTP proxy stuff. Default unset.
proxy_port: Port to use to connect to HTTP proxy host. Default null.
proxy_user: Username to use for authenticating to the HTTP proxy. Default null.
proxy_password: Password to use for authenticating to the HTTP proxy. Default null.
proxy_auth_scheme: Scheme to use for authenticating to the HTTP proxy. Default null.
