mod_proxy's forced module_selection=most? (Was: --enable-mods-shared don't work)

Any reason why we need to force the "most" selection for proxy modules?
This is already the default module_selection, and if --enable-modules
is used (with the admin supposed to know what [s]he does), it'll
break...

Also it seems that we force module_default to the value of
--enable-proxy (when "shared" or "static"), though I see no reason to
force "static".
Forcing "shared" is probably relevant if we don't want proxy
submodules to be loaded statically with mod_proxy itself being
dynamic, but one may want a static mod_proxy with dynamic mod_proxy_*
(at least it doesn't break).

Regards,
Yann.

I'm thinking of the attached patch...
