Adding HTTP proxy authentication to nsock and avoiding code duplication

[Jacek Wielemborek <d33tah () gmail com>]

Hello,

Andrew is currently working on moving Ncat's HTTP proxy authentication
code to Nsock in order to add support authenticated proxychains for
programs using the Nsock interface. The thing is that it cannot just be
cut from Ncat and pasted into Nsock because Ncat would still need the
code for parsing the requests in listen mode. This means that there's
the risk of duplicating the parsing routines; the alternative I can
think of is to move the functions to Nbase. What do you think about that
option? Is there any better way to do this? Is code duplication even a
real problem there?

Cheers,
d33tah
