Checking for updates always dialed through the local proxy, which fails
exactly when an update may be needed most - when no working server is
available. Like the subscription-update menu, updating without the proxy
is now possible: the Check Update window gets an "Update via proxy"
toggle (persisted, on by default so existing behavior is unchanged),
honored by the check-only, update and geo-file flows, and by the
scheduled update check.
