Per the discussion in #459, the XFF documentation doesn't match the implementation. This PR modifies the docs to try to describe more clearly the interaction between use_remote_address and X-Forwarded-For.

Very nice, thank you for this doc cleanup. @alyssawilk can you potentially read through this as well?

I'm trusting @mattklein123 on correctness but assuming correctness I think this is a much more clear explanation of what's going on. Thanks!
