Describe the problem you'd like to have solved

RestClient is now almost 4 years old without maintenance. It has old dependencies which aren't being updated. So, this is starting to cause pain. Ideally, we don't use RestClient any more.

Describe the ideal solution

I think migrating to faraday is a good idea. It provides a nice interface which is very similar to HTTPProxy and is well maintained.

Thanks @ioquatix, I agree there is an updated needed in this area. We're working out a plan for evolving this library and this is a key area that we could improve upon. I don't have a timeline for resolution but I'm recording this feedback internally.
