HTTP client fails to make HTTPS requests via a proxy

[timothyqiu]

Zig Version

0.12.0

Steps to Reproduce and Observed Behavior

1. Run a local proxy server, say mitmdump
2. Setup environment variables for http(s) proxy

   export https_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:8080
   

3. Make sure the proxy server is setup correctly. For example curl https://httpbun.com/get should work and mitmdump should show the request.
4. Then if you run this:

   const std = @import("std");
   
   pub fn main() !void {
       var arena = std.heap.ArenaAllocator.init(std.heap.page_allocator);
       defer arena.deinit();
       const allocator = arena.allocator();
   
       var client = std.http.Client{ .allocator = allocator };
       defer client.deinit();
   
       client.initDefaultProxies(allocator) catch |err| {
           std.debug.print("Unable to initialize default proxies: {}\n", .{err});
       };
   
       var response = std.ArrayList(u8).init(allocator);
       defer response.deinit();
   
       // Can't use httpbin.org, see #14172.
       const result = try client.fetch(.{
           .method = .GET,
           .location = .{ .url = "https://httpbun.com/get" },
           .response_storage = .{ .dynamic = &response },
       });
       std.debug.print("Result: {}\n", .{result});
       std.debug.print("Response: {s}\n", .{response.items});
   }

5. It's a bad request:

   Result: http.Client.FetchResult{ .status = http.Status.bad_request }
   Response: Client sent an HTTP request to an HTTPS server.
   

Expected Behavior

The request is successful, through the proxy.

Result: http.Client.FetchResult{ .status = http.Status.ok }
Response: {
  "method": "GET",
  "args": {},
  "headers": {
    "Accept-Encoding": "gzip, deflate",
    "Host": "httpbun.com",
    "User-Agent": "zig/0.12.0 (std.http)"
  },
  "origin": "123.456.789.012",
  "url": "http://httpbun.com/get",
  "form": {},
  "data": "",
  "json": null,
