    Add a '-proxycmd' command-line option.
    
    This is equivalent to selecting 'Local' as the proxy type and entering
    the argument string in the proxy command box, in the GUI.
    
    I've pulled this out of all the other proxy options to promote to a
    named command-line option, partly because it's the proxy option with
    the most natural command-line expression in the first place (any shell
    command you might want to use is already in the form of a single
    string), and also because it has uses beyond end-user proxying
    applications: in particular, replacing the network connection with a
    local process is a convenient way to do testing in the style of
    contrib/samplekex.py, avoiding the need to run a separate command to
    make the test 'server' listen on a port.
