Don't let an http_proxy environment variable bypass the pinned address in link previews

Opengraph::Fetch connects to the IP it checked, not to a fresh lookup of
the host. With http_proxy set, Net::HTTP would instead send the hostname
to the proxy, which looks it up again, so the connection could end up
somewhere other than the checked address. Pass nil as the proxy address,
as web push delivery already does.

# The nil proxy address ignores http_proxy: a proxy would look the host up again, and the connection
# would no longer go to the checked IP.

# The timeouts bound each operation. A host can still send its headers or body a byte at a time,
# in as many reads as it likes: UnfurlLinksController puts the whole unfurl under one deadline.
