KDE's ReversedException option is ignored

[GoogleCodeExporter]

If the KDE proxy configuration is manually (ProxyType == 1), than libproxy
uses the value of "httpProxy". But KDE provides own entries httpsProxy and
ftpProxy for the respective protocolls. (However, even KDE itself seems to
make not use of them...)

Furthermore, for manual proxy configuration there exists a list with
exceptions ("NoProxyFor") for which a direct connection should be used
instead of a proxy (if "ReversedException" is false which is the default).
Respectively, if "ReversedException" is true than the list contains the the
URLs for which a proxy should be used - for all other values a direct
connection is preferred. (This part is working as expected in KDE itself.)

Hint: The field "NoProxyFor" has no IDN/percent encoding and
can therefor contain non-Latin1 characters.

This should be fixed in r491, with two caveats:
1. We don't currently have intellegence for non-latin1 chars.  Can you give me a
concrete example of how this would be used?
2. We don't currently respect the ReversedException option.

Please test and let me know how it goes.

Ok, I'm renaming this bug since the only issue remaining is the 
ReversedException
option.  Hopefully we can tackle this in 0.4, but it will require some rework 
of the
module API.  The major theme of the 0.4 release is improved platform support and
smarter module auto-detection.
