Kévin Dunglas 88ed322afc net/http/httputil: add docs about X-Forwarded-For in ReverseProxy
ReverseProxy automatically sets the X-Forwarded-For header, if the request
already contains a X-Forwarded-For header, the value of the client IP is
appended to the existing header value.
This behavior isn't documented anywhere, and can lead to IP spoofing
security issues is the client is untrusted (the most common situation).
This PR documents this behavior.

For future versions, I proposed #36678 that implements a more secure
default behavior and adds support for other forwarded headers.
