 Since SOCKS5 takes 2 round trips, SOCKS4 doesn't support IPv6 and the
 proxy has to support DNS resolving in HTTP CONNECT, I would like to
 implement the proxy protocol of HAProxy to support IPv6 and the proxy
 doesn't have to resolve domain names by itself.

 According to the mail thread, https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-
 dev/2019-August/013968.html, people suggested to create a new torrc option
 called TCPProxy and have a protocol as a parameter.
