>Description:

1) Installing via HTTP proxy ( mediaSetHTTP() ) relies on mediaSetFTP().
   It's broken right now because the method of looking up the correct
   directory on the FTP server was changed in version 1.39 of ftp.c.
   This has to be changed in http.c, too.  I only look for one path
   (pub/FreeBSD/releases/MACHINE), though.

2) The issue that the FTP server's name should be resolved by the proxy:
   The current fix unsets VAR_NAMESERVER before calling mediaSetFTP().
   But in a normal install, the network hasn't been set up at this
   time.  Therefore, mediaSetFTP() will call tcpDeviceSelect() which
   sets VAR_NAMESERVER. Therefore the unwanted lookup takes place.


>How-To-Repeat:

1) Try to install via an HTTP proxy.
2) Select "HTTP proxy" as installation medium.  _Don't_ skip over the
   network setup, do it (again).  Note the "Looking up host" message.


>Fix:

0) In media.c and sysinstall.h, change VAR_HTTP_PATH to VAR_HTTP_PROXY
   (it holds the proxy's name and port).  VAR_HTTP_PATH is now analogous
   to VAR_FTP_PATH.
1) In http.c, correct setting the path.  Check if it's actually found on
   the FTP server.
2) In media.c, introduce a variable to explicitly signal that the server's
   name shouldn't be resolved.
