maybe looking at how this function is used makes it clearer what it does

for example
libavformat/http.c:    use_proxy  = !ff_http_match_no_proxy(getenv("no_proxy"), hostname) &&
libavformat/http.c-                 proxy_path && av_strstart(proxy_path, "http://", NULL);


but basically
no_proxy, is a list of addresses for which not to use the proxy server,
these may be local addresses
