Enable proxy protocols to be handled by the application. When the
indicated proxy protocol is returned by the GProxyResolver,
GSocketClient will consider this protocol as supported but will
not try find a GProxy instance to handle handshaking. The
application must check for this case by calling
g_socket_connection_get_remote_address() on the returned
GSocketConnection, and seeing if it's a GProxyAddress of the
appropriate type, to determine whether or not it needs to handle
the proxy handshaking itself.
This should be used for proxy protocols that are dialects of
another protocol such as HTTP proxy. It also allows cohabitation of
proxy protocols that are reused between protocols. A good example
is HTTP. It can be used to proxy HTTP, FTP and Gopher and can also
be use as generic socket proxy through the HTTP CONNECT method.
