Thank you for your answer  but as far as I can understand this setup is for
a regular proxy that just proxies https protocol with http connect headers
(unencrypted traffic between client and proxy on http connect request ) .
Secure web proxy encrypts traffic between client and proxy meaning that you
have an http connect request inside a tls tunnel.
