Closes #9019

Description

Chromium does not support authentication for SOCKS proxies, so this pull request hides the username and password fields when the user selects these protocols.

Testing

  • Select SOCKS5 or SOCKS4 as the proxy protocol -> the Username and Password fields disappear
  • Select HTTPS or HTTP as the proxy protocol -> the Username and Password fields appear

Desktop

  • OS: Windows 11
  • OS Version: Version 25H2
