Cannot use Electron's net module as https protocol

When attempting to replace the https module in request.protocols with the net module from Electron, inside electron’s node environment, the ostensibly compatible module returns a response which has arrays for the values of response headers instead of strings (see electron/electron#8117)

superagent quite reasonably assumes that the response object has string headers and throws a type error when trying to look up the content-type of the response.

The use case here is to use electron’s proxy aware https transport from the nodejs half of electron.

Not as excellent!

But it still doesn’t work.
