 THIS IS A PRIVATE INTERFACE

 It exists purely as a hack to support the configureFromPAC method used by
 the preference panels in the various apps.  Those apps need to be taught to
 just use the preferences API to "reload" the PAC file.  Then, at that point,
 we can eliminate this interface completely.

Methods

 This method may be called to re-configure proxy settings given a URI
 to a new proxy auto config file.  This method may return before the
 configuration actually takes affect (i.e., the URI may be loaded
 asynchronously).

 WARNING: This method is considered harmful since it may cause the PAC
 preferences to be out of sync with the state of the Protocol Proxy
 Service.  This method is going to be eliminated in the near future.

 @param aURI
        The location of the PAC file to load.  If this value is empty,
        then the PAC configuration will be removed.
