tests: also allow "Protocol not supported" in test-http-proxy error

I've seen this in a (misconfigured) FreeBSD jail which has ::1 as an
entry for localhost, but IPv6 support is disabled in the jail. It took
me months to figure out what was going on (and I only figured it out
when tinyproxy.py got confused by similar IPv4-level misconfiguration
of the localhost domain in /etc/hosts.)

I don't feel strongly about this patch: on the one hand, it's papering
over a host-level misconfiguration, but on the other it avoids some
weird and hard to diagnose problems that can occur in weirdly
restricted environments.

Put here definitions of blacklists for run-tests.py

Create a file per blacklist. Each file should list the names of tests that you
want to be skipped.
File names are meant to be used as targets for run-tests.py --blacklist
option.
Lines starting with # are ignored. White spaces are stripped.

e.g. if you create a blacklist/example file containing:
 test-hgrc
 # some comment
 test-help
then calling "run-tests.py --blacklist blacklists/example" will exclude
test-hgrc and test-help from the list of tests to run.
