When initializing the transport helper in `transport_get()`, we
allocate the name of the helper. We neither end up transferring
ownership of the name, nor do we free it. The associated memory thus
leaks.
Fix this memory leak by freeing the string at the calling side in
`transport_get()`. `transport_helper_init()` now creates its own copy of
the string and thus can free it as required.
An alterantive way to fix this would be to transfer ownership of the
string passed into `transport_helper_init()`, which would avoid the call
to xstrdup(1). But it does make for a more surprising calling convention
as we do not typically transfer ownership of strings like this.
Mark now-passing tests as leak free.

We do not test our http proxy functionality at all in the test suite, so
this is a pretty big blind spot. Let's at least add a basic check that
we can go through an authenticating proxy to perform a clone.
A few notes on the implementation:
- I'm using a single apache instance to proxy to itself. This seems to
work fine in practice, and we can check with a test that this rather
unusual setup is doing what we expect.
- I've put the proxy tests into their own script, and it's the only
one which loads the apache proxy config. If any platform can't
handle this (e.g., doesn't have the right modules), the start_httpd
step should fail and gracefully skip the rest of the script (but all
the other http tests in existing scripts will continue to run).
- I used a separate passwd file to make sure we don't ever get
confused between proxy and regular auth credentials. It's using the
antiquated crypt() format. This is a terrible choice security-wise
in the modern age, but it's what our existing passwd file uses, and
should be portable. It would probably be reasonable to switch both
of these to bcrypt, but we can do that in a separate patch.
- On the client side, we test two situations with credentials: when
they are present in the url, and when the username is present but we
prompt for the password. I think we should be able to handle the
case that _neither_ is present, but an HTTP 407 causes us to prompt
for them. However, this doesn't seem to work. That's either a bug,
or at the very least an opportunity for a feature, but I punted on
it for now. The point of this patch is just getting basic coverage,
and we can explore possible deficiencies later.
- this doesn't work with LIB_HTTPD_SSL. This probably would be
valuable to have, as https over an http proxy is totally different
(it uses CONNECT to tunnel the session). But adding in
mod_proxy_connect and some basic config didn't seem to work for me,
so I punted for now. Much of the rest of the test suite does not
currently work with LIB_HTTPD_SSL either, so we shouldn't be making
anything much worse here.
