pass proxy settings to javadoc tool

Hi there,

the attached patch passes proxy settings to the javadoc commandline tool, which
will be called from the <javadoc> ant task.

Proxy settings are necessary if external javadoc resources should be linked
with the generated javadoc, and the host resides behind a firewall.

The proxy settings from the system properties must be explicitly passed to the
javadoc commandline tool, since the tool cannot be run inside the same jvm as
ant, and therefore a new jvm will be created for javadoc (refer to:
http://ant.apache.org/manual/index.html)

Hi hope this patch will be merged into the Ant source tree.

What do you think?

Cheers,
Thomas
