auth: only use X- headers instead of REMOTE_ADDR if explicitly told so in remote_addr_header
Before, X-Forwarded-For (and others) headers would *always* be trusted blindly,
also in setups without a proxy server. It would thus in some cases be
possible for users to fake their IP, and thus potentially be possible to bypass
IP restrictions configured in Kallithea.
Fixed by making it configurable which WSGI environment variable to use for the
remote address. Users can configure remote_addr_header to for example
HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR instead of using the default REMOTE_ADDR.
This change is a bit similar to what is going on in the https_fixup middleware,
but is doing a bit more of what for example is happening in similar code in
werkzeug/middleware/proxy_fix.py .

Repository statistics
=====================
Kallithea has a *repository statistics* feature, disabled by default. When
enabled, the amount of commits per committer is visualized in a timeline. This
feature can be enabled using the ``Enable statistics`` checkbox on the
repository ``Settings`` page.
The statistics system makes heavy demands on the server resources, so
in order to keep a balance between usability and performance, statistics are
cached inside the database and gathered incrementally.
When Celery is disabled:
On each first visit to the summary page a set of 250 commits are parsed and
added to the statistics cache. This incremental gathering also happens on each
visit to the statistics page, until all commits are fetched.
Statistics are kept cached until additional commits are added to the
repository. In such a case Kallithea will only fetch the new commits when
updating its statistics cache.
When Celery is enabled:
On the first visit to the summary page, Kallithea will create tasks that will
execute on Celery workers. These tasks will gather all of the statistics until
all commits are parsed. Each task parses 250 commits, then launches a new
task.
