Check protocol for proxy requests
---------------------------------

                 Key: SHINDIG-662
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHINDIG-662
             Project: Shindig
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Gadget Rendering Server (PHP)
         Environment: Multiple *nix
            Reporter: Tim Wintle


ProxyHandler does not check the protocol of requests.

-> On our development servers, a request to proxy "file://[some big logfile]" 
successfully tied up the server for 30 seconds of cpu time. 
    (The request was not passed back to the client, but this bug opens up a 
possibility for dos attack)

Patch submitted simply checks that the requested url includes http, https or 
ftp protocols if a protocol is specified.
