All methods got moved to HttpRequestFactory or MWHttpRequest or dropped.
I made the return value of the new HttpRequestFactory::request/get/post
methods null on error instead of false, so that when we drop PHP 7
support, we can use a "?string" return value. This could theoretically
change behavior of code that was switched from the old Http methods, but
probably won't. I kept the old behavior for the deprecated methods.
I changed the default value of $wgHTTPProxy from false to ''. This way
it should be usable directly without a trivial wrapper method. For the
benefit of anyone who might have set it to false in LocalSettings.php, I
also recommend casting to string just in case.
Http::$httpEngine is deprecated. Eventually it will be removed along
with the curl and PHP engines, leaving only the Guzlle engine.
I also added deprecation of MWHttpRequest::factory, which occurred in
1.31, to the release notes for 1.34. Now hopefully we can hard-deprecate
it in another couple of versions.

Note there is an important difference between the two ways to express
this: strlen() does a string cast, but the `=== ''` and `!== ''`
comparisons will only detect empty strings, but not null, false, or any
other falsy value that becomes an empty string when cast to be one.
I am only touching code where I'm sure the variable is guaranteed to be
a string.
This change is done because I find the strict comparisons much more
readable. The code does exactly one thing now, and no magic casts any
more.

Breaks some line where the ignore is not needed.
The sniff was changed upstream to be okay
with long unbreakable lines in comments

This is a pure documentation change. It mostly removes empty lines from
comments (and entirely empty comments), as well as adds a few missing
documentation blocks and fixes a minor mistake. I hope it's ok to have
this in one patch. I can split it, please tell me.

* added integration tests. We probably don't want automated tests
to make external requests but these make manual testing more
convenient. Documented some oddities discovered by testing.
* made ::$status, ::proxySetup() and ::getHeaderList()
protected; they were not referenced in any gerrit-hosted extension
and they provide no useful functionality to external callers.
Similarly, marked ::read() and ::errorHandler() as internal
(these are used as callbacks so can't be protected)
* removed inheritance abuse in ::execute()
* documented ::execute() as returning a StatusValue (but
keep returning a Status for now)
* changed setCookie argument defaults to ones that make sense
* replaced MWException
* moved unit tests to the correct location
* fixed some code style issues

MWHttpRequest::factory() will pass in a logger to move the dependency up
to the factory instead of individual functions.
