Proxy Support Issue: Unable to Install Dependencies Behind Proxy

Environment

• Windows
• Other tools (npm, Unity, Android gradle, etc) work correctly through proxy.
• Fresh Pinokio installation
• All system-level proxy configurations are working (npm, curl, etc.)

Problem

Unable to install dependencies (starting with Miniconda) due to DNS resolution failure behind proxy.

Configured Environment

• Environment HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY variables set and working for other tools
• NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS configured and working for self-signed certificates

Error

Error: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND repo.anaconda.com at GetAddrInfoReqWrap.onlookup [as oncomplete] (node:dns:107:26)

The pinokio console shows

downloading installer: https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-py310_24.5.0-0-Windows-x86_64.exe...
Downloading https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-py310_24.5.0-0-Windows-x86_64.exe to C:\pinokio\bin...
Download Failed: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND repo.anaconda.com!
Download Failed: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND repo.anaconda.com!

The above happens while attempting to install ComfyUI for example.

Request

1. Add proper proxy support documentation
2. Implement proxy configuration options in UI/config
3. Ensure pinokio environment respects system proxy settings

I think my issue is also proxy related. I get stuck on Playwright on MacOS:
npm http fetch GET https://registry.npmjs.org/npm attempt 1 failed with ENOTFOUND

I turned off my VPN, ignored my Pi-Hole DNS in my router, and keep getting that error. Oddly, I have a dual-boot machine and when I try in Windows, I don't have any issues. Not sure how it works in Windows but not in MacOS when using the same hardware / network connection.
