parse_proxy $proxy

This static method is used for parsing proxies. The $proxy can be array reference like [host, port] or comma separated string like "http://1.2.3.4:80/,http://2.3.4.5:80/".

parse_proxy() returns an array reference of two-element tuples (also array ferences), each containing a host and a port:

  [ [ host1, port1 ],
    [ host2, port2 ],
    ...
  ]
