fix(gateway): prevent auth bypass when behind unconfigured reverse proxy (#1795)
* fix(gateway): prevent auth bypass when behind unconfigured reverse proxy

When proxy headers (X-Forwarded-For, X-Real-IP) are present but
gateway.trustedProxies is not configured, the gateway now treats
connections as non-local. This prevents a scenario where all proxied
requests appear to come from localhost and receive automatic trust.

Previously, running behind nginx/Caddy without configuring trustedProxies
would cause isLocalClient=true for all external connections, potentially
bypassing authentication and auto-approving device pairing.

The gateway now logs a warning when this condition is detected, guiding
operators to configure trustedProxies for proper client IP detection.

Also adds documentation for reverse proxy security configuration.

* fix: harden reverse proxy auth (#1795) (thanks @orlyjamie)
