support for http/https proxies

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Tried to install gce on a corporate network with all outbound http traffic 
required to go via proxies, and it doesn't appear that the sdk has any support 
for such (grepped through the src). it would be nice if it supported standard 
(at least on linux) env vars (http_proxy/https_proxy) or a minimum a cli flag, 
the underlying transport libs that are being used all seem to support.

it looks like httplib2 should do this automatically.

We pushed an update that should fix the issue with using proxies for gcloud 
auth.  Just to confirm, you are seeing problems when installing the Cloud SDK 
(using the component manager before trying to authenticate)?  We use the 
standard Python urllib2 which should automatically support the standard 
environment variables.  If you are still having an issue, please post a stack 
trace so we can debug further.

proxy.. good to go, thanks.
