Reproduction steps

Setup proxy with env variable https_proxy=xxx and then use pnpm publish to publish to npmjs. It will prompt with auth url and QR code, but will never continue even if you have passed auth in browser.

Describe the Bug

The publish procedure uses libnpmpublish, which will use proxy provided in env. While pollForWebAuthToken uses undici, which will not use proxy by default.

When first attempt to publish, proxy is used and authUrl/doneUrl is returned. When checking done status in pollForWebAuthToken, proxy is not used. So the ip address is different from the previous, result in the doneUrl always respond 403.

Expected Behavior

Use proxy to visit doneUrl. Able to publish normally.
