Curl and its families honor several proxy related environment variables:

* http_proxy and https_proxy define proxy for http/https connections.
* no_proxy (a comma separated hosts) defines hosts bypass the proxy.

This command will bypass the bad-proxy and connect to the host directly:

    no_proxy=* https_proxy=http://bad-proxy/ \
    curl -sk https://google.com/

Before commit 372370f (http: use credential API to handle proxy auth...),
Environment variable "no_proxy" will take effect if the config variable
"http.proxy" is not set.  So the following comamnd won't fail if not
behind a firewall.

    no_proxy=* https_proxy=http://bad-proxy/ \
    git ls-remote https://github.com/git/git

But commit 372370f not only read git config variable "http.proxy", but
also read "http_proxy" and "https_proxy" environment variables, and set
the curl option using:

    curl_easy_setopt(result, CURLOPT_PROXY, proxy_auth.host);

This caused "no_proxy" environment variable not working any more.

Set extra curl option "CURLOPT_NOPROXY" will fix this issue.

Sounds sensible; I am guessing that this is 2.8.0-rc0 regression
that we need to fast-track?

Knut, does this look good?

Thanks.
