Description of the issue

When I include http-proxy and http-proxy-user-pass details in the config I'm not able to connect. From the logs, the ConfigParser is expecting only 2 parameters but 2 parameters only works when there's no proxy credentials included in the config. Tested this in OpenVPN Connect and it works showing the connection as TCPV4-via-HTTP.

"Caused by: de.blinkt.openvpn.core.ConfigParser$ConfigParseError: Option http-proxy has 3 parameters, expected between 2 and 2"

http-proxy proxy.com 3128 auto
<http-proxy-user-pass>
proxy
proxy
</http-proxy-user-pass>

BTW, Thank you very much for your hard work!!!

Just to confirm this issue, the Linux Openvpn client expects 3 parameters:
http-proxy proxy.com 3128 auto
but the android client expects 2 parameters which will work if I remove the auto

Another problem is the Android client won't reconnect if vpn is disconnected and http proxy config is set, but it does reconnect if socks proxy is used!
