boinccmd --set_proxy_settings does not enable the proxy

See the discussion at http://boinc.berkeley.edu/dev/forum_thread.php?id=3303.

Fixed in 6.6.12. Also, I added the ability to specify proxy settings in cc_config.xml: http://boinc.berkeley.edu/wiki/Client_configuration This may be used instead of boinccmd in some cases.

(In [17379]) - boinccmd: fix bug in --set_proxy_settings command

(it wasn't setting the "use_XXX" flags). Fixes #776

• client: you can now include a <proxy_info> element

in your cc_config.xml options.

TODO: the whole proxy info thing needs an overhaul:

• no separate "use_XXX" flags;

non-empty http_server_name implies using HTTP proxy, etc.

• merge PROXY_INFO and GR_PROXY_INFO classes
• use XML_PARSER for parsing
• no PROXY_INFO element in HTTP_OP; just use gstate.proxy_info
