feat(e2e): add support running behind proxy (#5348)

* docs: update maintaining

* chore(e2e): add maxFailures to playwright

* fix(ci): skip submodule in e2e job

We don't need the submodules for the e2e job. This will speed up the
checkout step.

* feat(ci): add test-e2e-proxy job

This adds a new job to CI to run our tests behind Caddy and simulate
code-server running against a reverse-proxy.

* refactor: make e2e work with reverse proxy

This refactors the e2e test in a couple ways:
- remove setting cookie in localStorage (instead we pass --auth none)
- refactor address() method to account for reverse proxy logic

* Update test/e2e/models/CodeServer.ts

* Update test/playwright.config.ts

* Update test/utils/constants.ts

* Update test/utils/helpers.ts
