Allow for download through our caching proxy at sec-certs.org #413

Recently, CCportal changed infra and enabled a rate limit. Our usual download procedure hits this rate limit and is able to download only a small subset of the artifacts.

Thus a proxy is running at sec-certs.org that caches the artifacts. This commit makes it possible to use the proxy in the tool.

By querying the proxy on the background, the server makes sure that the rate limit is not hit and the artifacts are available.
