The feature adds a button and UI to the My-Settings window. Mockups below.
How To Test

- symlink cloned directory to CP components directory,
/usr/share/sugar/extensions/cpsectionby default - restart sugar shell
- open Proxy CP component and setup proxy connection
- open gnome-network-setting and check if it has the same options set
User Experience
The feature is entirely localized only within Control Panel.
Dependencies
None.
Contingency Plan
Do not use new Control Panel component.
