set_real_ip_from --how to load IP list file ?

[CJ Ess]

He has a point - if your using multiple CDNs you can have many dozens of
addresses for the real_ip module - it would be nice to be able to source
them from a file.

Also last I checked the real_ip module did a linear search through all the
addresses configured, its not an issue yet but at some point it would be
worth changing that to some sort of tree structure.
