Research direction

Start by tracing the symbol-loading and download entry points in the VS Code C/C++ extension; the issue does not name specific files or tests. Check how HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY are currently handled, then verify that symbol downloads use those settings and remain functional through an appropriate test or manual download check.
