That's how a POST request looks like when sent to a proxy. You can't avoid
that when talking HTTP.

No, not if you're talking to a proxy.

POSTFIELDS is for the POST request-body, the request-URI string that comes
after the POST is created from the URL you tell libcurl.

No you don't if you still use the proxy. But otherwise you can again get the
path right by setting the correct CURLOPT_URL.
