Fix UnsupportedProxyProtocol error for SOCKS proxy agents (#7382)

This commit addresses the immediate issue where socks-proxy-agent would fail
with 'UnsupportedProxyProtocol' error in Bun.

Changes:
- Convert SocksProxyAgent proxy objects to SOCKS URLs in Node.js HTTP client
- Add socks4:// and socks5:// protocol recognition in HTTPThread.zig
- Add is_socks_proxy flag to HTTPClient flags
- Add basic SOCKS connection handling infrastructure

Current Status:
- ✅ Fixes 'UnsupportedProxyProtocol' error - the primary issue reported
- ✅ SOCKS proxy agents can now be created and used without errors
- ⚠️  Full SOCKS proxy routing requires additional implementation

The current implementation provides basic SOCKS protocol recognition but does
not yet implement the complete bidirectional SOCKS handshake protocol required
for actual proxy routing. This is a foundation for future SOCKS support.
