Vasanthdev2004 221fb93041 fix(proxydial): bind the proxy exemption to the route the transport chose
Asking the Proxy function a question of our own invention answered for a
request the transport never made. With NO_PROXY excluding a host, the real
request to that host goes direct while a synthetic probe still comes back
proxied, so a direct dial whose address happened to equal the configured
proxy endpoint skipped the guard and reached whatever the name resolved to
at connect time. A probe on the previous head dials rebind.example:80 with
zero safety lookups; the guard now runs and refuses its private answer.
Host-dependent proxy callbacks make the mismatch general, and no spelling
of the probe host closes it, because the two calls are about different
requests.

The decision is now recorded where it is made. proxydial.Transport wraps
the transport, asks its Proxy function about the actual request, and puts
the answer in that request's context; the transport derives the dial
context from the request context, so the dialer reads back the route this
very connection is being opened for. Per-request, so concurrent requests
cannot overwrite each other, and the context key is unexported so nothing
outside the package can plant one.

Address matching is gone with it. A transport opens one connection dial,
and when a proxy is selected that dial goes to the proxy, so the recorded
route already identifies the dial. Comparing the address on top could only
disagree with the transport, which is what a Unicode proxy hostname did:
Go dials xn--bro-hoa.example while the URL still spells it as configured,
and the proxy was refused as an ordinary private address. Both spellings
are now one endpoint with no comparison to get wrong.

Documents where destination enforcement ends: with a proxy configured, the
target hostname is sent to the proxy and the proxy resolves it, so the
local pre-request checks no longer bind the address that is reached. A
forward proxy already sees and can rewrite every request through it, so
that trust comes with configuring one; the alternative is refusing to use
proxies at all, which is the outage in #569.
