Hi,
This fix addresses an issue in HttpClient when retrying a POST request
over proxied HTTPS. In this case, the request body is stored in a
PosterOutputStream poster, which is set to null in
sun/net/www/protocol/http/HttpURLConnection::sendCONNECTRequest after
the first request.
The fix addresses this issue by storing the current state of poster in a
local variable in a new method HttpClient::checkTunneling.
Note: The system property 'sun.net.http.retryPost' defaults to true in
HttpClient line 180 but the test is run explicitly for both options for
readability.

The test case was provided by the submitter of the original bug, Arrault
Fabien.

Julia
