CurlClient isn't used anymore and probably could be deleted

[dobosevych]

CurlClient isn't used anymore and it is broken for a lot of time, so probably can be removedhttp/curl.py. There are several reasons for that

1. It depends on pycurl that isn't in any dependencies, so on next code we will receive an error

from kombu.asynchronous.http.curl import CurlClient
c = CurlClient()

2. I don't see any usage client CurlClient or Client in celery repo

In any case code could be at least cleaned

it was scheduled to removed

pycurl might have usage in kombu most probably

[dobosevych]

but it isn't in any dependencies already
should I help with code cleaning?

[auvipy]

boto sqs?

[dobosevych]

pip install kombu

>>> from kombu.asynchronous.http.curl import CurlClient
>>> c = CurlClient()

will lead to an error. This I suppose should be fixed or cleaned. What is your suggestion?

#737 check this please

Why does kombu needs pycurl but doesn't specify this in requirements? Can someone please help with this. Thank you.
