Squid is an application level proxy, not a NAT engine. Squid is not
concerned with NAT or even packets, just HTTP traffic at the application
level ontop of TCP.

By their TCP connection to the application level proxy.
Clients connect to Squid. Squid connects to the web server.

The client IP is available in very many places within Squid, and is not
hard to find if looking for it. See for example the src acl.
