`"http.proxySupport": "on"`
This does not work.

Research direction

Reproduce the failure using the README.md installation steps, Linux, and working HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY settings, then run VS Code's AWS: Connect to AWS command. Inspect how the extension handles the proxy while loading Lambda Functions; done means the functions load successfully behind the corporate MITM proxy instead of timing out.
