[issue226] smart + python-curl does not honor 'http-proxy' config

[Jon at Labix Tracker]

New submission from Jon <jnelson-smartpm at jamponi.net>:

The short version is:

if python-curl is installed the 'http-proxy' configuration variable is ignored.
In my opinion, the 'http_proxy' (and associated) environment variables should be
consulted only if the 'http-proxy' (and associated) *configuration* variables
are not set (and not just empty, indicating do-not-use):

Specifically I refer to this:

host:~ # smart config --show | grep proxy
 'http-proxy': 'http://some-other-host:3129/',
host:~ # 

and if python-curl is installed, a tcpdump shows it using the environment
variable specified proxy, not the one specified above.
