Get the configured name proxy, if any.

Get the proxy configured for a given network, if any.

Set the name proxy to use for all connections to nodes specified by a hostname. After setting this proxy, connecting to a node specified by a hostname won't result in a local lookup of said hostname, rather, connect to the node by asking the name proxy for a proxy connection to the hostname, effectively delegating the hostname lookup to the specified proxy.
