It will require tuning in some cases and work automatically in others.
Currently it only works where tuning is available.

We read PROXY protocol in mail and stream as well, which would require
similar settings there.

Yes, dynamic per-connection buffers is what I've been trying to avoid.

I like this alternative. This was in fact my first thought, but the actual
number was (and still is) hard to pick. I suggest that we increase the
on-stack buffer for reading and leave the writing buffer size as is for now.
The writing part will need refactoring anyway when we add ppv2 support.

Increased maximum read PROXY protocol header size.
Maximum size for reading the PROXY protocol header is increased to 4096 to
accommodate a bigger number of TLVs, which are supported since cca4c8a715de.
Maximum size for writing the PROXY protocol header is not changed since only
version 1 is currently supported.
