I assume we try to keep a "namespace" for the more optional modules like
this. It does seem weird and is unnecessarily long but starting with
"Proxy" would lead me to think this directive _belongs_ to one of the
mod_proxy modules.

Yes, I planned the same (not cookie licking! It's all yours if you want
it!) which kinda makes me like the RemoteIP prefix on this new directive
to further differentiate it from the client-side work of mod_proxy_*. In
the case of mod_proxy sending the header, a directive like
"ProxySendProxyProtocolHeader On" seems like a viable option (again,
long... and kinda redundant... but "clear" in my mind who's doing what).

Pending further responses to the followup I sent a moment ago, I'll do
another commit for final cleanup and to remove the new module now ported
to remoteip and will then work on a backport for 2.4
