Multiple forward slashes in request URL cause unexpected issues

[ImranR-TI]

Environment

Node 22.14.0, httpxy 0.1.7

Reproduction

https://github.com/ImranR-TI/httpxy_multiple_fwslash_bug_minimal

1. Run node server.js and node proxy.js
2. Visit http://localhost:3005/, see Hello World! as expected
3. Visit http://localhost:3005/test, see Test Page! as expected
4. Visit http://localhost:3005//test (note the double forward slash //), see Hello World! instead of the expected Test Page! (almost like like the //test part of the request URL was cut off, not sure if that's what's actually happening).

Describe the bug

When the request being proxied has multiple consecutive forward slashes, the proxy seems to break and cut off the rest of the URL.

This doesn't happen with the latest (2018) version of the old http-proxy module, so that might be a clue.
