What exactly are the settings we need? I think this ticket still needs that level of planning.

Description updated (diff)

I agree those are the right settings. I'm adding them to the description along with some descriptions.

I renamed redirect_path to redirect_prefix_path because I thought it more clearly called out that it's only the prefix. I believe that's correct.

I want to retell what I think https_retrieval does for the users. It allows them to force https or http to match how they've configured their squid. It's a global setting which is kind of unfortunate because if you have some clients that can't support https you have to disable https globally. At some point in the future we may consider an option that would allow this setting at a distribution level.

Also for https_retrieval, we can't rely on "use the same protocol the client used to contact Pulp with" because when deploying Pulp behind a reverse proxy that provides TLS termination (for example) would always appear to pulp as http when the client is actually requesting https.
