Summary

0001789: aMule is not using proxy configured in preferences to download nodes.dat and servers.met

Description

aMule always tries to download nodes.dat and servers.met directly, ignoring both aMule HTTP or Socks5 proxy preferences and system proxy settings. Also environment variables http_proxy, https_proxy, socks_proxy are ignored.
Both files have to be downloaded (and updated too) manually and placed in ~/.amule directory if host is behind firewall with proxy.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Set HTTP or Socks5 proxy enable flag and proxy type, host and port settings at aMule preferences (optional - at system config, and optional - environment variables at ~/.bashrc, need to import .bashrc to bash if in console).
2. Start tcpdump at terminal session on data interface
3. Start aMule (from graphic interface or optional - from terminal session)
4. Press update button on server.met (ED2k tab) or nodes.dat (KAD tab)
5. Seeing direct HTTP request attempt to upd.emule-security.org in tcpdump output and error messages in aMule log like below while aMule KAD and ED2K protocols are using proxy settings without any problems for search and downloads:

tcpdump:
13:16:38.894352 IP ubuntu.45432 > esingleservecoffeemakers.org.http: Flags [S], seq 441771513, win 29200, options [mss 1460,sackOK,TS val 2467241725 ecr 0,nop,wscale 7], length 0
13:16:38.894835 IP esingleservecoffeemakers.org.http > ubuntu.45432: Flags [R.], seq 0, ack 441771514, win 0, length 0

aMule log:
2018-07-09 13:16:38: HTTP: WARNING: Void response on stream creation
2018-07-09 13:16:38: Invalid response from HTTP download server
2018-07-09 13:16:38: Failed to download server.met from http://upd.emule-security.org/server.met [^]

Note: esingleservecoffeemakers.org in dump is reverse resolution of IP of upd.emule-security.org
