Module proxied

Connect to relays via a proxy.

This code is here for two reasons:

1. To connect via external pluggable transports (for which we use SOCKS to build our connections).
2. To support users who are behind a firewall that requires them to use a SOCKS proxy to connect.

Currently only SOCKS proxies are supported.
