[PATCH] SSL Tunneling Connection Timeout

[Michael Becke <be...@u.washington.edu>]

As discussed in the IRC session on Thursday here is a patch that should 
"fix" the timeout problem that occurs when using Https through a proxy. 
  This fixes the problem by not allowing HttpConnections that are 
tunneled to be reused.  This is by no means a perfect solution but it 
should add some stability.  There is still a potential problem in 
HttpMethodBase.processRequest() when a retry occurs.  In this case the 
connection will be reopen but without the necessary step of creating 
the proxy tunnel.  One option here would be to set maxRetriesto 0.  
Please take a look and let me know.

Thanks,

Mike
