proxy/http: Avoid getting stuck when using server-first protocols

PR #99 reduces an extra RTT when setting up the CONNECT tunnel
via http proxy, however, server-first protocols (such as MySQL)
will be unusable as v2ray keeps to wait for the client request.
This commit solves the problem by limiting the maximum waiting
time to 50 ms.
