>Description:
/usr/bin/fetch utility does not download files over https when environment variable HTTP_PROXY is set.
When establishing tcp ssl connection, host and port are chosen correctly (regardless of the variable HTTP_PROXY):
if (purl && strcasecmp(URL->scheme, SCHEME_HTTPS) != 0) {
    URL = purl;

But GET string is formed not quite correct:
if (purl) {
    http_cmd(conn, "%s %s://%s%s HTTP/1.1",
        op, url->scheme, host, url->doc);

As a result, the https request string looks like this:
GET https://some.host/uri HTTP/1.1

While this is technically correct, some web servers do not serve these requests and returns '400 Bad Request'.
>How-To-Repeat:
env HTTP_PROXY=foo fetch https://github.com/simpl/ngx_devel_kit/tarball/v0.2.18/simpl-ngx_devel_kit-v0.2.18-0-g48bc5dd.tar.gz
fetch: https://github.com/simpl/ngx_devel_kit/tarball/v0.2.18/simpl-ngx_devel_kit-v0.2.18-0-g48bc5dd.tar.gz: Bad Request
