Honor environment proxies whenever Python would use httpx (sync calls, HTTP/2, aiohttp disabled), apply the per-call ssl_verify argument, ignore empty or missing SSL env values the way http_handler.py does, expire pooled clients after an hour so rotated certificates reload, keep the client certificate off media downloads, and decline instead of raising when a litellm global has an unexpected type
Drop the core ocr() facade so VertexAuth and the http pool stay out of litellm-core's
public API, move the http Error enum to error.rs, and inject the media DNS resolver into
HttpClientPool instead of a per-call builder hook the cache key ignored.
The bridge now reads litellm.* HTTP settings only through litellm/rust_bridge/settings.py,
pinned by python_settings.json, while env overrides stay in Rust. This adds the Python
default User-Agent, parses string ssl_verify globals like get_ssl_verify, drops per-call
ssl_verify that Python OCR never honored, and removes the unused request_timeout.
