Added HTTP proxy functionality to node-apn

Node-apn
node-apn is a library to simplify the task of sending apple push notifications from Node.js applications.
Contribution
In the corporate environment I was working on, request to the Internet had to go through an HTTP proxy or else they would be blocked.
We were building an iOS application with a Node.js backend from where we wanted to send push notifications. For that we wanted to use the node-apn
library but we could only do so if it supported connecting to apple's servers through a proxy.
Since that wasn't a feature currently available, I submitted a PR for it: https://github.com/node-apn/node-apn/pull/602
