Add support for SOCKS5 proxy

Does your organization/company have an internal Amazon point-of-contact?

We do have technical account managers

Your best bet is to have your TAM make a feature request with the CRT/IoT SDK teams.

Also, be very specific in what kind of authentication support you need (if any). No-auth or username-password is straightforward; GSSAPI or some other kind of protocol is a lot more work.
