Willy Tarreau d3dbfd9085 BUG/MEDIUM: cfgparse: do not allocate IDs to automatic internal proxies
Recent commit 83614a9fb ("MINOR: httpclient: initialize the proxy") broke
reg tests that match the output of "show stats" or "show servers state"
because it changed the proxies' numeric ID.

In fact it did nothing wrong, it just registers a proxy and adds it at
the head of the list. But the automatic numbering scheme, which was made
to make sure that temporarily disabled proxies in the config keep their
ID instead of shifting all others, sees one more proxy and increments
next_pxid for all subsequent proxies.

This patch avoids this by not assigning automatic IDs to such internal
proxies, leaving them with their ID of -1, and by not shifting next_pxid
for them. This is important because the user might experience them
appearing or disappearing depending on apparently unrelated config
options or build options, and this must not cause visible proxy IDs
to change (e.g. stats or minitoring may break).

Though the issue has always been there, it only became a problem with
the recent proxy additions so there is no need to backport this.
