Switching

Moving a Decodo setup to AeonProxy

Both put targeting into the proxy login, so most setups move by rewriting the login. Decodo writes user-USERNAME-country-us-city-new_york-session-abc123-sessionduration-30 and AeonProxy writes LOGIN-cc-us-city-newyork-sid-abc123-time-1800 on gate.aeonproxy.com:7000 (SOCKS5 on 7001).
