Is a private key needed for tls-cert bundle?

Yes, it is needed, either in the tls-cert bundle or in the tls-key=file. See https_port documentation for details.

You are setting up an HTTPS forward proxy (as far as this https_port is concerned). For a TLS client to trust such a proxy, the proxy must identify itself (and sign traffic) with a trusted (by the client) certificate. Doing so naturally requires the proxy to possess the matching private certificate key. This aspect is similar to how an HTTPS server identifies itself to TLS clients.
