Add http.client.HTTPConnection method get_proxy_response_headers() - this is a followup to https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/26152 which added it as a non-public attribute. This way we don't pre-compute a headers dictionary that most users will never access. The new method is properly public and documented and triggers full proxy header parsing into a dict only when actually called.

* bpo-22708: Upgrade HTTP CONNECT to protocol HTTP/1.1 (GH-NNNN)
Use protocol HTTP/1.1 when sending HTTP CONNECT tunnelling requests;
generate Host: headers if one is not already provided (required by
HTTP/1.1), convert IDN domains to punycode in HTTP CONNECT requests.
* Refactor tests to pass under -bb (fix ByteWarnings); missed some lines >80.
* Use consistent 'tunnelling' spelling in Lib/http/client.py
* Lib/test/test_httplib: Remove remnant of obsoleted test.
* Use dict.copy() not copy.copy()
* fix version changed
* Update Lib/http/client.py

If an HTTP link is redirected to a same looking HTTPS link, the latter can
be used directly without changes in readability and behavior.
It protects from a men-in-the-middle attack.
This change does not affect Python examples.
blocksize was hardcoded to 8192, preventing efficient upload when using
file-like body. Add blocksize argument to __init__, so users can
configure the blocksize to fit their needs.
I tested this uploading data from /dev/zero to a web server dropping the
received data, to test the overhead of the HTTPConnection.send() with a
file-like object.
Here is an example 10g upload with the default buffer size (8192):
$ time ~/src/cpython/release/python upload-httplib.py 10 https://localhost:8000/
Uploaded 10.00g in 17.53 seconds (584.00m/s)
real 0m17.574s
user 0m8.887s
sys 0m5.971s
Same with 512k blocksize:
$ time ~/src/cpython/release/python upload-httplib.py 10 https://localhost:8000/
Uploaded 10.00g in 6.60 seconds (1551.15m/s)
real 0m6.641s
user 0m3.426s
sys 0m2.162s
In real world usage the difference will be smaller, depending on the
local and remote storage and the network.
See https://github.com/nirs/http-bench for more info.
The deprecation include manual creation of SSLSocket and certfile/keyfile
(or similar) in ftplib, httplib, imaplib, smtplib, poplib and urllib.
ssl.wrap_socket() is not marked as deprecated yet.
The previous attempt to determine the file’s Content-Length gave a false
positive for pipes on Windows.
Also, drop the special case for sending zero-length iterable bodies.
When the body object is a file, its size is no longer determined with
fstat(), since that can report the wrong result (e.g. reading from a pipe).
Instead, determine the size using seek(), or fall back to chunked encoding
for unseekable files.
Also, change the logic for detecting text files to check for TextIOBase
inheritance, rather than inspecting the “mode” attribute, which may not
exist (e.g. BytesIO and StringIO). The Content-Length for text files is no
longer determined ahead of time, because the original logic could have been
wrong depending on the codec and newline translation settings.
Patch by Demian Brecht and Rolf Krahl, with a few tweaks by me.
This changeset does two things: introduces a new RemoteDisconnected exception
(that subclasses ConnectionResetError and BadStatusLine) so that a remote
server disconnection can be detected by client code (and provides a better
error message for debugging purposes), and ensures that the client socket is
closed if a ConnectionError happens, so that the automatic re-connection code
can work if the application handles the error and continues on.
Tests are added that confirm that a connection is re-used or not re-used
as appropriate to the various combinations of protocol version and headers.
Patch by Martin Panter, reviewed by Demian Brecht. (Tweaked only slightly by
me.)
Some http servers will reject PUT, POST, and PATCH requests if they
do not have a Content-Length header.
Patch by James Rutherford, with additional cleaning up of the
'request' documentation by me.
This commit also removes a couple of non-standard status codes. They were
added as part of edf669b13482, so there is no backwards compatibility issue.
