`HttpClients in this module use httplib to make HTTP requests.
This module make HTTP requests based on httplib, but there are environments
in which an httplib based approach will not work (if running in Google App
Engine for example). In those cases, higher level classes (like AtomService
and GDataService) can swap out the HttpClient to transparently use a
different mechanism for making HTTP requests.
HttpClient: Contains a request method which performs an HTTP call to the
server.
ProxiedHttpClient: Contains a request method which connects to a proxy using
settings stored in operating system environment variables then
performs an HTTP call to the endpoint server.`

The URL of the proxy server is assumed to be stored in the environment variables 'https_proxy' and 'http_proxy' respectively. If the proxy server requires a Basic Auth authorization header, the username and password are expected to be in the 'proxy-username' or 'proxy_username' variable and the 'proxy-password' or 'proxy_password' variable.
