More robust win32 IE proxy settings detection using winhttp. This essentially parses the same registry entries, but we don't have to do the grunt work and it seems to work better. This gives us a start to apply proxy bypass support and autoconfig via PAC file when we can change the API in 3.0.0. I'd also like to change this so we can parse a SOCKS proxy setting and not just fill in the environment variables.

For information on writing a plugin for Purple, Pidgin or Finch, go
http://developer.pidgin.im and click on API.  From there, see the HOWTOs in the
"Related Pages" section.

You can also generate this documentation locally by installing
doxygen and graphviz dot, then running "make docs" in the
source tree.  The documentation will be in the docs/html directory.
