http, https: don't depend on globalAgent

For the `request()` and `get()` functions. I could never
really understand why these two functions go through agent
first... Especially since the user could be passing `agent: false`
or a different Agent instance completely, in which `globalAgent`
will be completely bypassed.

Moved the relevant logic from `Agent#request()` into the
`ClientRequest` constructor.

Incidentally, this commit fixes #7012 (which was the original
intent of this commit).
