chocolatey module bootstrap does not support forward proxy

[chris-scentregroup]

Straight out of develop, https://github.com/saltstack/salt/blob/develop/salt/modules/chocolatey.py#L212-L218.

Resolution: update webclient if a proxy is set on the minion or environment.

Particularly important on windows when proxy is set, requests backend is used and other things can be installed by proxy until calling the chocolatey.bootstrap which will render:

[INFO    ] Executing command 'C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy unrestricted -Command "iex ((new-object net.webclient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))" && SET PATH=%PATH%;%systemdrive%\chocolatey\bin' in directory 'C:\Users\Administrator'
[ERROR   ] Command 'chcp 437 > nul & C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy unrestricted -Command "iex ((new-object net.webclient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))" && SET PATH=%PATH%;%systemdrive%\chocolatey\bin' failed with return code: 1
[ERROR   ] stderr: Exception calling "DownloadString" with "1" argument(s): "Unable to connect to the remote server"
