Title:
  [RFE] Add support X-Forwarded-For header in LBaaSv2

Status in octavia:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  X-Forwarded-For headers are used by proxies and load balancers to pass on the original client's IP to the server, while NATing the request.
  This is very handy for some applications but has some overheads and therefore has to be configurable.
  LBaaSv2 API doesn't offer support for enabling XFF header.
  Without having an XFF header, the members cannot conclude which IP address originated the NATed request - e.g for auditing purposes.
  Changes required are addition of a boolean property to the listener - which will indicate that an XFF header should be appended to the requests.
