redapple: I'm adding 2 policies that appeared in [the working draft](https://www.w3.org/TR/2016/WD-referrer-policy-20161222/):
- [`"strict-origin"`](https://www.w3.org/TR/2016/WD-referrer-policy-20161222/#referrer-policy-strict-origin)
- [`"strict-origin-when-cross-origin"`](https://www.w3.org/TR/2016/WD-referrer-policy-20161222/#referrer-policy-strict-origin-when-cross-origin)
redapple: Alright, @kmike , @eliasdorneles , @lopuhin , @dangra , I think this is ready for review.
Thanks in advance!
redapple: (I'm not sure why I use `ftps` in some tests. It's not supported by Scrapy)
redapple: @kmike , I rebased, updated the docs with `autoclass` directives and renamed the setting to `REFERRER_POLICY`.

redapple: Another thing could be to move the policies to scrapy/extensions, similar to HTTP cache policies (with `scrapy/scrapy/extensions/httpcache.py`). What do you think?
kmike: @redapple I think current code structure is fine; policies are not Scrapy extensions

Scrapy uses `file://` URL as referer
If I use a local file in a request (e.g. 

``` python
def start_requests(self):
    yield Request(path_to_file_uri(filename))

def parse(self, response):
    for url in json.loads(response.text):
        yield Request(url)
```

and then make a HTTP request in the callback, scrapy uses the file URL as the `referer` in the HTTP header. 

I think `file://` URL should be avoided from being used as the `referer` value (or generally any protocol other than http/s) because
1. it is not part of the normal hyperlink navigation
2. it exposes the local file structure to the remote site
