Introduce command line interface to start a local proxy server connect to upstream #410

I would like to use proxy-chain to start a local proxy server that connected to a upstream proxy. It would be convienient to have a command line interface to doing so for some quick testing.

It's not a complicated thing to implement such feature. I would like to create a PR for this if you think it is useful.

I think it would be better as a standalone package as it introduces some extra dependencies that are useless to the exited users. Here is the package: https://www.npmjs.com/package/proxy-chain-cli

By the way, I find that proxy-chain don't support https protocol for upstream. Is there plan to support this? I would like to do something but I don't have idea about how to make it. It seems much more complicated than the http one.
