The proxy configuration was not being properly passed to the

`AWS.SharedIniFileCredentials` object, so if users configure AssumeRole
credentials in their `~/.aws/config` file, it would try to connect to
STS directly instead of going through the proxy.

Properly parse and pass the HTTP options to the right AWS file.

(Note that this object only takes `HTTPOptions` and not
`ConfigurationOptions`, so there's no way to override the user agent
on this initial STS call).

Fixes #7265.
