[TT-9985] Add HTTP proxy protocol handling

[ldmonster]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
We already have an TCP handling of ha-proxy-protocol, but still not support HTTP/HTTPS.
In our case, we want to parse ha-proxy protocol in tyk, not any service before or after.

Describe the solution you'd like
We already have a solution for ourselves, but we want to tyk use it, because we want to use new stable versions with this feature.
We add new GatewayConfig toggle, to enable all ha-proxy-protocol handling on HTTP/HTTPS/h2c.

{
  "enable_proxy_protocol_http": true
}

Describe alternatives you've considered
We already trying to use nginx before or after, but it looks like overhead, when we can do it on tyk

Hi @ldmonster,

Thanks for getting in touch with this. I've taken a look at the original ticket and can see that it was auto-closed by a bot that we were running a while back, because the bot detected it as stale.

We're very open to community PRs, which are a lot easier to inspect than your fork of the Tyk codebase. Would you consider raising a PR, then we'll be able to take a look more promptly?

Thank you for supporting Tyk!
