Description
The networking properties page documents a few system properties that are not used by the JDK code. The documentation should be updated to reflect the status quo.

The properties in question are:
- http.auth.digest.cnonceRepeat. The property existed, but was removed in JDK-4823429 (JDK 5)
- java.net.socks.username and java.net.socks.password. These were actually user preferences, not system properties. They were removed in JDK-6852108 (JDK 7)

Additionally, JDK-5001942 introduced socksNonProxyHosts, which is not documented. The documentation for that property should be added.
