HttpClient doesn't support proxy authentication

           Summary: HttpClient doesn't support proxy authentication
           Product: Commons
           Version: 2.0 Alpha 1
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: HttpClient
        AssignedTo: commons-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: joerg.gambihler@web.de


If proxy requires authentication, it sends status 407 (Proxy Authentication 
Required) and the response header "Proxy-Authenticate" (see RFC2616; e.g. Squid 
can be configured to do so).
HttpClient doesn't yet process this response.
Behavior should be similar to processing of status 401 (Unauthorized).
