[Bug 1929241] [NEW] [feature request] add a proxy CLI option to debootstrap

Public bug reported:

debootstrap connects to the Internet but provides no proxy option, and
the man page makes no mention of whether the http_proxy environment
variable is honored.  Ideally, Tor users would benefit most from SOCKS4a
support.  I suggest modeling after cURL ("--socks4a 127.0.0.1:9050").
