Make PackagKit use the user's network proxies
Pick up network proxies from the user's environment and make PackagKit use
them. Setting network proxies is a privileged operation, so it is only
attempted if the user is allowed to use the polkit action
org.freedesktop.packagekit.system-network-proxy-configure without
authentication.
