[security] do not emit HTTP_PROXY to CGI env

Strip bogus "Proxy" header before creating subprocess environment.
(mod_cgi, mod_fastcgi, mod_scgi, mod_ssi, mod_proxy)

Do not emit HTTP_PROXY to subprocess environment.
Some executables use HTTP_PROXY to configure outgoing proxy.

This is not a lighttpd security issue per se, but this change to
lighttpd adds a layer of defense to protect backend processes which
might be vulnerable due to blindly using this untrusted environment
variable.  The HTTP_PROXY environment variable should not be trusted
by a program running in a CGI-like environment.

Mitigation in lighttpd <= 1.4.40 is to reject requests w/ Proxy header:

* Create "/path/to/deny-proxy.lua", read-only to lighttpd, with content:
  if (lighty.request["Proxy"] == nil) then return 0 else return 403 end
* Modify lighttpd.conf to load mod_magnet and run lua code
    server.modules += ( "mod_magnet" )
    magnet.attract-raw-url-to = ( "/path/to/deny-proxy.lua" )
