New: Add support for PAC URL and windows registry

[tsvi]

After some more usage of the proxy support I discovered a few issues,

1. Under windows, the information can be set in the registry instead of using an environment variable.
2. Sometimes the information is provided as a PAC proxy. The URL points basically to a configuration file that defines the location of the proxy.
3. I tried setting PAC proxy directly and not messing around with parsing it. Unfortunately, pupetter when downloading the browser does not allow changing the proxy agent. This forced me to parse the information from the PAC proxy.
4. Although I tested the previous PR under Linux working fine for scraping, I had missed getting the information uploaded to YNAB. This PR also updates the Network settings for unidici which is responsible for pushing the information to YNAB.

I changed downloadChromium back to be proxy-agnostic. Setting the proxy is now done at the backend level supporting both scraping and pushing.
I refactored the proxyConfig code to make it clearer in functionality and set it as a directory under backend.

Pull request overview

This PR adds support for Windows registry-based proxy configuration and PAC (Proxy Auto-Config) file parsing to enable the application to work behind corporate proxies. The proxy configuration has been refactored from being import-specific to backend-level, ensuring proxy support for both scraping (via Puppeteer) and YNAB API calls (via undici).

Changes:

• Added Windows registry proxy detection for Windows environments
• Implemented PAC file fetching and basic proxy extraction via regex pattern matching
• Refactored proxy configuration into a dedicated proxyConfig module with separate concerns (agent management, PAC files, Windows registry)
• Integrated proxy initialization/teardown at the backend level to support both Chromium downloads, scraping, and YNAB API communication
