Proxy protocol support? #950

Does Unit support Proxy protocol? I have a Nginx set up with listen 8080 ssl default_server proxy_protocol; along with real_ip_header proxy_protocol; and was wondering if Unit can do the same.

Unit doesn't support PROXY Protocol yet. As an application server / origin server it is most commonly deployed behind a reverse proxy or load balancer which can convert PROXY Protocol to X-Forwarded- request headers. Unit can use these to provide a similar experience to nginx's real_ip module.
