SECURITY: middleware.ClientIP, a replacement for middleware.RealIP

@​VojtechVitek submitted PR #967, which introduces middleware.ClientIP — a replacement for middleware.RealIP that closes the three open spoofing advisories:

It also addresses issues outlined at:

middleware.RealIP is deprecated in this PR with pointers to the new API.

The deprecation only adds a // Deprecated: doc comment; the function keeps working for backward compatibility.

Why a new middleware (not "fix RealIP in place")

RealIP has two unfixable design choices: it mutates r.RemoteAddr, and it tries to be a one-size-fits-all default by walking a hard-coded list of headers any client can supply. Per adam-p's "The perils of the 'real' client IP" (which calls chi out by name on this), there is no safe default — the user must pick their trust source explicitly.

The new API

Four middlewares, two accessors. Pick exactly one middleware based on your infrastructure, read the result with one of the two accessors:

// One of the four. There is no safe default — pick exactly one.
func ClientIPFromHeader(trustedHeader string) func(http.Handler) http.Handler
func ClientIPFromXFF(trustedIPPrefixes ...string) func(http.Handler) http.Handler
func ClientIPFromXFFTrustedProxies(numTrustedProxies int) func(http.Handler) http.Handler

OK, I won't notify you again about this release, but will get in touch when a new version is available. If you'd rather skip all updates until the next major or minor version, let me know by commenting @dependabot ignore this major version or @dependabot ignore this minor version. You can also ignore all major, minor, or patch releases for a dependency by adding an ignore condition with the desired update_types to your config file.

If you change your mind, just re-open this PR and I'll resolve any conflicts on it.
