Summary
-------

This the second part of a series of patches designed to improve and bring KIO's proxy support to the levels of KDE 3.5 and beyond. Unlike the first series, https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/100971/, these set of patches are focused on the two classes in KIO that are responsible for providing proxy information to all ioslaves, KProtocolManager and KIO::Scheduler. Here are a list of the changes contained within:

KProtocolManager:
------------------
* Add socks proxy support to KProtocolManager.
* Add functions for obtaining multiple proxy URL addresses when configured through PAC scripts.
* Add support for obtaining system proxy information on Windows and Mac platforms. [1]

KIO::Scheduler:
---------------
* Set a new meta-data, "ProxyUrls" with a list of comma separated proxy urls.[2]


[1] Please note that on Linux/Unix platforms system proxy configuration is assumed to be set through enivronment variables and has been supported since the days of KDE 2.0.
[2] The existing meta-data "UseProxy" will still be set with the first url from the list.
