applied-series: [PATCH proxmox{,-backup} 0/4] fix #3723: allow using node http proxy for remote connections

["Fabian Grünbichler" <f.gruenbichler@proxmox.com>]

with a small follow-up switching the precende in pbs-client around -
since passing in an explicitly configured proxy is opt-in, it makes
sense for that to take precedence over an env variable.
