I believe a similar question has been answered a few years ago, and that
answer is still valid. I will quote that exchange below for your
convenience, but the source is at
http://lists.squid-cache.org/pipermail/squid-users/2016-September/012689.html

Item 3 includes an ICAP option that Antony suggested on this thread, and
I know there are eCAP adapters that implement raw HTTP traffic emulation
mentioned there.
