CURLOPT_*-docs: provide additional details
Went through CURLOPTTYPE_STRINGPOINT and CURLOPTTYPE_SLISTPOINT options
and clarified:

- what happens when setting the option *again*

- setting to NULL disables/restores to default

# NAME
CURLOPT_HAPROXY_CLIENT_IP - set HAProxy PROXY protocol client IP
# SYNOPSIS
~~~c
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HAPROXY_CLIENT_IP,
char *client_ip);
~~~
# DESCRIPTION
When this parameter is set to a valid IPv4 or IPv6 numerical address, the
library sends this address as client address in the HAProxy PROXY protocol v1
header at beginning of the connection.
This option is an alternative to CURLOPT_HAPROXYPROTOCOL(3) as that one cannot
use a specified address.
Using this option multiple times makes the last set string override the
previous ones. Set it to NULL to disable its use again.
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this
option.
# DEFAULT
NULL, no HAProxy header is sent
# %PROTOCOLS%
# EXAMPLE
~~~c
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
CURLcode ret;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_HAPROXY_CLIENT_IP, "1.1.1.1");
ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
}
}
