Bug Description

When the linux box is behind a Socks proxy, there are two cases :
- the DNS calls can be done without going through the proxy
- the DNS calls have to go through the proxy

The first case is supported by snapd by setting your environment variables :
`HTTP_PROXY=socks5://myproxy:myport/`

The second case is not supported...

Some tools such as `curl` support a protocol `socks5h://`

It would be very useful is `snapd` could support this protocol.
