Hello, I am having some issue marshaling and unmarshalling a HTTPClientConfig struct to JSON. https://github.com/prometheus/common/blob/49b36038aead362ce78f09337dc5872000bd048a/config/http_config.go#L239
The problem is about the ProxyURL field. When there are no ProxyURL configured,it gets marshaled to "proxy_url":null, and then it gets unmarshaled to an empty string. Contrary to a null pointer, an empty string will be handled by the http package like a valid Proxy. resulting in some connection error. https://pkg.go.dev/net/http#Transport I first thought that it was some kind of bug, but then looking at the tests, this looks like an intended feature: https://github.com/prometheus/common/blob/49b36038aead362ce78f09337dc5872000bd048a/config/http_config_test.go#L1435 This is why I am confused here, is it a bug, or is there some kind of trick that I am missing?
