urllib2.urlopen() through proxy causes ssl.CertificateError when HTTPS URL contains port number.

Sample code:

$ https_proxy='http://proxy.example.com:8080/' python -c 'import urllib2; urllib2.urlopen("https://www.python.org:443/")'
Traceback (most recent call last):

ssl.CertificateError: hostname 'www.python.org:443' doesn't match either of 'www.python.org', 'python.org', 'pypi.python.org', 'docs.python.org', 'testpypi.python.org', 'bugs.python.org', 'wiki.python.org', 'hg.python.org', 'mail.python.org', 'packaging.python.org', 'pythonhosted.org', 'www.pythonhosted.org', 'test.pythonhosted.org', 'us.pycon.org', 'id.python.org'

This problem seems to be caused because urllib2.AbstractHTTPHandler.do_open() calls httplib.HTTPSConnection.set_tunnel() without splitting hostname and port number.

To fix this problem, I suggest applying the patch posted in issue https://bugs.python.org/issue22095 .
This problem looks serious because it means we cannot access HTTPS using various port number at restricted environment (e.g. under the firewall).

Thank you for your report Atzm.
