Disable remote content by using a void proxy

# Patch description

Disable remote content by using a void proxy

enable-dns-prefetching=0 has stopped blocking remote content after the
switch to webkit2gtk. Disabling it with a false proxy works.

Setting proxy to "" works well with libsoup-backed webkit2gtk since it
prevents any connection attempts. If libcurl-backed webkit2gtk won't
like it, it may be replaced by "http://127.0.0.9:9" (with 9 being
reserved for the discard service, and 127.0.0.9 being more greppable
than 127.0.0.1).
