Support for Proxy in HttpClient in iOS

[Syed-RI]

Description

Please provide support/implementations to enable proxy in iOS

We are currently working on some enterprise applications which will be deployed to corporate devices via their MDM systems and they will enforce proxy on these devices. I was horrified seeing this bit of warning in my .NET MAUI app

Bit of search revealed more horrors here: xamarin/xamarin-macios#14632

May be this is bit late for our project and we will have to abstract and have platform specific, unmanaged HttpClientHandlers to support proxy in iOS devices. Is there any proposal anywhere or official workaround? Apologies, if there is any and I have somehow missed it.

@rolfbjarne - does this seem like it should move to xamarin-macios or dotnet/runtime?
