auth: don't trust clients too much - only trust the *last* IP in the X-Forwarded-For header
The X-Forwarded-For header contains a list of IP addresses, where each
proxy server appends the IP they see their request coming from.
See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/X-Forwarded-For .
Trusting the *first* IP in HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR would allow clients to claim
any IP, which could be used to bypass IP restrictions configured in Kallithea.
Instead, only trust the last proxy in the chain, and thus only use the *last*
IP in HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR. (In setups where more than last IP should be
trusted, the last proxy server in the chain must be configured rewrite the
header accordingly.)

====================
Backing up Kallithea
====================
Settings
--------
Just copy your .ini file, it contains all Kallithea settings.
Whoosh index
------------
The Whoosh index is located in the ``data/index`` directory where you installed
Kallithea, i.e., the same place where the ini file is located
Database
--------
When using sqlite just copy kallithea.db.
Any other database engine requires a manual backup operation.
A database backup will contain all gathered statistics.
