Normally, http servers shouldn't send this to us since we
don't advertise it with an Accept-Encoding header, but some
servers still do it anyway.

Allow applications to request reading streamcast metadata. This uses
AVOptions as API, and requires the application to explicitly request
and read metadata. Metadata can be updated mid-stream; if an
application is interested in that, it has to poll for the data by
reading the "icy_metadata_packet" option in regular intervals.
There doesn't seem to be a nice way to transfer the metadata in a nicer
way. Converting the metadata to ID3v2 tags might be a nice idea, but
the libavformat mp3 demuxer doesn't seem to read these tags mid-stream,
and even then we couldn't guarantee that tags are not inserted in the
middle of mp3 packet data.
This commit provides the minimum to enable applications to retrieve
this information at all.

It is notably known to break playback on http streaming servers who use
the user agent to guess if it's a browser (to display a summary) or a
player (to stream the audio data).
This reverts 1fabd95.
Fixes Ticket #2663.
As far as I can tell the code should not change behaviour
depending on locale in any of these places.

The handling of the environment variable no_proxy, present since
one of the initial commits (de6d9b6404), is inconsistent with
how many other applications and libraries interpret this
variable. Its bare presence does not indicate that the use of
proxies should be skipped, but it is some sort of pattern for
hosts that does not need using a proxy (e.g. for a local network).
As investigated by Rudolf Polzer, different libraries handle this
in different ways, some supporting IP address masks, some supporting
arbitrary globbing using *, some just checking that the pattern matches
the end of the hostname without regard for whether it actually is
the right domain or a domain that ends in the same string.
This simple logic should be pretty similar to the logic used by
lynx and curl.

Add an tri-state (seek, non seek, automatic detection) option to HTTP to control seekability (default: automatic).

Use the MAX_URL_SIZE define where applicable. Increase buffer
sizes for all buffers that need to fit a long pathname - buffers
that need to fit only the hostname (and other short strings, but
not the pathname - such as "headers" in http_connect) are kept
at 1024 bytes for now.
Also increase the max line length in http_read_header, since it
might need to contain a full url for Location: redirects.

This can happen if doing a new request using the same socket,
but the new request failed, which clears the urlcontext.

This fixes issues with opening http urls that have authentication
or redirects, introduced in commit e999b641.

Introduce ff_http_do_new_request(), a new function which sends a new
HTTP request, reusing the existing connection to the server.

Add a new AVOption 'multiple_requests', which indicates if we want
to use persistent connections (ie. Connection: keep-alive).

Allow up to 4 retries for normal requests, where both the
proxy and the target server might need to authenticate.

This definition is in two files, since the definitions will move
to the private header at the next bump.

This string will be passed to ff_http_auth_create_response
even if no proxy is used, resulting in reading uninitialized
memory. The other auth string is always initialized by
av_url_split.
