Summary: urllib2 raises an UnboundLocalError if "auth-int" is the qop

Initial Comment:
If a proxy server is connected to that specifies the "auth-int" quality of protection (qop) code--or any qop code aside from "auth", actually--urllib2 raises an UnboundLocalError exception.  While this patch doesn't implement auth-int, it does modify the behavior of urllib2 such that it raises a URLError with the reason "qop '%s' is not supported', where %s is the name of the qop code.

Two unit tests that test urllib2's functionality with an in-process proxy can be found at:

  http://varmaa.googlepages.com/Urllib2ProxyTests.py

I will try to attach this file to this patch ticket if I can.  I am also interested in integrating this unit testing suite with the Python standard lib unit tests, and am willing to work with you if this is desirable.  One of the unit tests in this suite succeeds with the standard version of urllib2.py, but the other fails unless this patch is applied.

This patch (and the unit test suite) applies to Python 2.4 and 2.5.
