TASK DESCRIPTION
  Pywikibot runs a relatively large set of post-merge tests via GitHub Actions. 
Some of these tests use Beta Cluster wikis as their target for end-to-end 
testing of various features especially upcoming changes of new MW versions.
  
  GitHub Actions uses Microsoft Azure to host it's runners. There are over 5000 
(!) IP ranges listed at https://api.github.com/meta that GitHub Actions might 
make requests from. Due to  unwanted crawlers, some of the IP addresses used by 
GitHub Actions have blocked and lead to http response 403 (see T399415 
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T399415>).
  
  So solve this problem, a proxy can be used. It’s usage is already available 
through requests package:

   T399485#11011491 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T399485#11011491>
  
  This might also increase the WM rate limits
