           Summary: $wgShowIPinHeader should be implied when using file or
                    squid cache modes

Currently we just silently fail to cache things if $wgShowIPinHeader is on,
which it is by default.

This is pretty lame and error-prone, since it's realllly easy not to realize
you have to turn off this cosmetic setting to make caching work. I take full
responsibility for making it work this way back in the early 2000s, but that
was dumb of me. :)

We should just force it to off if eg $wgUseFileCache is in use, since that's
the far more interesting/important setting.
