Win32: use native WinHttpGetProxyForUrl

[GoogleCodeExporter]

On Win32, use the native system function
[http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa384097%28VS.85%29.aspx
WinHttpGetProxyForUrl] which already handles PAC.

Indeed, I would like to use this.  Can you provide a short example of how to do 
so?

Also, my only concern is making sure that libproxy functions the same on all 
platforms.  I don't suspect this will be a problem, but it is something we'll 
watch 
for.

Chrome has examples of how to do this. Look at 
net/proxy/proxy_resolver_winhttp.cc

(libproxy support in Chrome should be based on that file too).

Sample implementation attached. Simply replace the content of config_w32reg.cpp 
or add as new .cpp file. Tested and works as expected.
The sample can be improved further with better conversion from IE proxy bypass 
list to ignore list and with IDNA support.
