Match trusted proxies as IP addresses
set_trusted_proxies() compared addresses as strings, so a proxy listed as 10.0.0.2 was not trusted when a server listening on both IPv4 and IPv6 saw it as ::ffff:10.0.0.2, and two spellings of one IPv6 address did not match either. The listed addresses are now put in one spelling when they are set, and so are the connection peer and each X-Forwarded-For hop before they are looked up; an IPv4-mapped IPv6 address becomes its IPv4 address. The README now documents the setter.

### Client address behind a reverse proxy
|
||||
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
svr.set_trusted_proxies({"10.0.0.2"});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
A request that comes straight from one of these addresses gets `req.remote_addr` from `X-Forwarded-For`: the rightmost address in it that is not a trusted proxy. A request from anywhere else keeps the address of its connection, whatever `X-Forwarded-For` says. Addresses match as IP addresses, so an IPv4 peer that a server listening on both IPv4 and IPv6 sees as `::ffff:10.0.0.2` matches `10.0.0.2`. Host names and CIDR ranges are not supported.
