ERL-1040: Allow any term for httpc profile
Original reporter: vances
Affected version: Not Specified
Component: inets
Migrated from: https://bugs.erlang.org/browse/ERL-1040
Multiple instances of {{httpc_manager}} may be started, each of which has it's own set of options ({{profile}}) to be used in requests. These may be started and stopped dynamically during run time.
Currently the type for profile is {{atom()}}. This is a problem if an application will dynamically start and stop {{httpc}} with a unique {{profile}} for each as the atom table isn't garbage collected.
