- two reversions to unnecessary changes
- some typo fixes
- capitalization of HTTP/S where reasonable
- commenting out code section with ''' rather than #

- if it is provided, don't require the certificate filename to be
provided as an absolute path
- raise an error if the provided certificate filename does not
point to an existing file, rather than just printing and
ignoring (to avoid possible future diagnostic headaches)

Added Python version checking and changed behavior
in Python2.7.9+ to use custom certificate for target server
inherited from command line argument.
In Python versions < 2.7.9, proxy_server.py does not perform certificate
validation of the target server. As that is not part of what the current
tests using this script require, that is currently OK. In Python
versions > 2.7.9 (SSLContext was added in 2.7.9), the same code actually does
check the certificate, using the system's trusted CAs. As a result, since we
are using custom certificates, we need to either disable certificate
checking in 2.7.9 or load the specific CA for target test server, using the
SSLContext and create_default_context functionality also added in 2.7.9. It
is easier to do the latter, so the behavior in 2.7.9+ is to check the cert
and below 2.7.9 is not to. Note that we do not support Python < 2.7.
SSLContext is also available in all Python3 versions that we support.
