fix: fix connection errors when using custom system certificates and an http proxy. (#807)
When trying to use the Railway CLI behind an HTTP proxy that requires
a custom certificate ( such as some VPNs ), the CLI would previously
fail with a certificate error. This adds the `rustls-tls-native-roots`
feature reqwest to trust the native platform's system certificate store to
fix that.

Railway commands that require a websocket connection were also
failing to go through the proxy, because while `reqwest` automatically
sends requests through the proxy `async-tungstenite` would not. This
removes `async-tungstenite` in favor of `reqwest-websocket` which is
simpler and uses `reqwest` to properly send the initial HTTP request
through the proxy before the websocket upgrade.
