Capability of setting HTTP/HTTPS proxy as client parameter vs using ENV

[grvillic]

Context

I have an app that would only use https proxy for clients that make outgoing HTTP requests to external services, like ABS. I see this client does support proxy, but only as ENV variable. See Core HTTP Client:

azure-storage-ruby/common/lib/azure/storage/common/core/http_client.rb

Line 69 in 05ea58a

URI::parse(ENV["HTTP_PROXY"])

Solution

We should be able to define outbound proxy without affecting the whole app environment. Passing optional client param from its instantiation and using ENV var as fallback (if any).
