Research direction

Start by reviewing the proposed golang.org/x/net/proxy API and the referenced main.go around line 107. Determine how HTTP and SOCKS proxy configuration should reach the client's dialer, including support for a caller-provided dialer or creation function. Done means both proxy types and custom dialer injection are supported and covered by tests.

Description

Can you add HTTP and SOCKS proxy support?
Maybe via the api from golang.org/x/net/proxy
https://github.com/jackpal/Taipei-Torrent/blob/6808fdfe24b4db505476ef48b9e288a5e7398f77/main.go#L107C6-L107C21
And it's better to make it possible to pass your own dialer creation function or dialer altogether.
