Support HTTP_PROXY / HTTPS_PROXY use with "got" package

[pilsy]

This is so that update-notifier will correctly handle proxies

See https://www.npmjs.com/package/got#proxies for information about using proxies with got

Not interested in adding extra stuff for proxy support here. Builtin proxy support is planned for got and you could help out with that instead.

got already supports proxies, and while you "could" make it look at process.env.HTTP_PROXY and process.env.HTTPS_PROXY and then setup an agent for it, i figured that it wasn't the place for it... for instance i may want to use the got package with multiple proxies in a programmatic fashion so why would it lock you into using those variables.

It would be as simple as, passing an agent parameter with your call to got on line 23 of index -- much like CleverStack/cleverstack-cli@5b15523#diff-ad4f0d8fb92260728a1b559aed92cd81R89

I'm not going to add custom proxy logic to every single package I have that uses got.
