Description

Rudder does its inventory upload and the policy uuid detection using http(s).

We have the following tools for downloading currently supported:
curl, minicurl

In Unix OS, the common tools are:
curl, wget, fetch (with some limitations)

It would be good to at least also support wget. It seems to work:

Fetch seems to not support webdav, but uploads are supported.
I'm not sure if that is enough.

One could also deal with minicurl, which would probably work cross-platform.
Or something more modern, I'm sure there's more.

What I'd really like is to:
Simply be certain Rudder will be able to connect and do its stuff, by itself.

done with rudder_client in 7.0, and global usage of curl everywhere in 6.x.
