[issue43074] Unable to use system proxy with HTTPS connection on Windows

New submission from 双草酸酯 <admin at 0x.mk>:

On Windows you can only set a "host:port" http proxy as system proxy.
```
PS > Get-ItemProperty -Path 'HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings' | findstr ProxyServer
ProxyServer              : 127.0.0.1:7890
```

But in Python, it assumes that this proxy supports both http and https on the same port:

```
>>> import urllib
>>> urllib.request.getproxies()
{'http': 'http://127.0.0.1:7890', 'https': 'https://127.0.0.1:7890', 'ftp': 'ftp://127.0.0.1:7890'}
```

On Python 3.8.x it works but on 3.9.x it keeps failing to handshake on https traffic.

3.8.x:

```
