The --http-caching option was removed prior to VLC 2.0.0 with this commitdiff: Unify (ACCESS|DEMUX)_GET_PTS_DELAY

The option --http-proxy was removed from the 3.0.x and 4.0.0-dev branches with this commitdiff: HTTP win32: use http-proxy options to setup the proxy with summary Because win32/netconf is not ready.

The option --http-user-agent changed in VLC 1.1.1 (changelog):

libvlc_set_user_agent() configures the "user agent" strings used for some
protocols (HTTP, PulseAudio...). This replaces the --http-user-agent and
the former --user-agent libvlc_new() parameters.
