This fixes several issues where services would see the internal IP of
the proxy and not that of the client.
It works by first unsetting any proxy-related headers that arrive from
the internet, then setting those as seen by HAProxy's entrypoint
frontend.
And finally making sure that neither WAF when enabled nor other
HAProxy backends touch these headers, while they are actually used by
the final services.
Services affected: Netcloud, Keycloak, Moodle
The environment / dd.conf variables: PROXY_PROTOCOL and DISABLE_WAF
determine how DD and HAProxy will behave.
- PROXY_PROTOCOL: whether or not the PROXY protocol will be accepted
- DISABLE_WAF: whether or not WAF will be enabled
This simplifies maintenance, as well as the overall architecture and operation.
While at it, we now publish images for DD's HAProxy as well.
