python-manta should replace httpurllib2 with requests #31

Open bahamat opened 9 years ago

See MANTA-2648.

Httpurllib2 comes with a pathetically small list of trust anchors (<30) and on SmartOS images it's unable to find a larger set of trust anchors.

Requests on the other hand, ships its own CA bundle containing 149 trust anchors. This lets customers (as well as Joyent) who have on-prem Manta select from a wider list of CAs for purchasing certificates.
