replacing libsoup with nanohttp?

[Jussi Kukkonen]

Santtu had some valid points here (thanks for the input). Especially
async and https support might be useful at some point -- still, I
decided to try the nanohttp route for this release of maemo packages at
least. Porting was easy (and should be easy if we ever want to go back),
so I think I'll push this change to fd.o if everything seems to work out
fine and no-one has objections.


Some details:
* nanohttp should pick up proxy settings automatically (so the code is
somewhat smaller), but I haven't tested that -- let me know if it
doesn't work.

* soup apparently does some uri escaping itself. With nanohttp one has
to use xmlURIEscapeStr() or similar when user input is accepted.
