Description
Currently, proxy-verifier will fail parsing and will not send traffic if it finds any transactions without a key. This is probably good in most cases to avoid surprising the user with unexpected traffic (502s, say). But it would be good to allow them to do this if they know what they are doing. Perhaps setting --format "" should be allowed to avoid non-existent key checks.

Research direction
Start by tracing command-line handling for --format into the transaction parsing path, focusing on where missing transaction keys cause parsing to fail. The change is complete when an explicitly empty format can skip those checks while the existing default behavior remains unchanged; verify the resulting replay behavior with the project's available checks.
