app/vmauth: add removeXFFHTTPHeaderValue flag
Previously, there was no option to replace value of `X-Forwarded-For`
HTTP Header. It was only possible to completely remove it. It's not good
solution, since backend may require this information. But using direct
value of this header is insecure. And requires complex knowledge of
infrastruce at backend side (see spoofing X-Forwarded-For articles).

This commit adds new flag, that replaces content of `X-Forwarded-For`
HTTP Header value with current `RemoteAddress` of client that send
request.
It should be used if `vmauth` is directly attached to the internet.
