Sumit Kumar Das 2c4db99229 Differentiate Forwarded and X-Forwarded headers in proxy docs
The proxy server section pointed at RFC 7239 and then told the reader to
configure the application server for the X-Forwarded headers, conflating
the standard Forwarded header with the non-standard X-Forwarded-* set.

Describe the two kinds of headers separately, note that most proxies send
X-Forwarded-* while Spring Framework and servers such as Reactor Netty and
Jetty understand both, and state that the edge proxy has to drop or
overwrite untrusted values for both kinds rather than only one.

Closes gh-19461
