Improve reverse proxy documents and clarify the AppURL guessing behavior (#31003) (#31020) 

Backport #31003 by wxiaoguang

Fix #31002

1. Mention Make sure `Host` and `X-Fowarded-Proto` headers are correctly passed to Gitea
2. Clarify the basic requirements and move the "general configuration" to the top
3. Add a comment for the "container registry"
4. Use 1.21 behavior if the reverse proxy is not correctly configured

# Reverse Proxies
## General configuration
1. Set `[server] ROOT_URL = https://git.example.com/` in your `app.ini` file.
2. Make the reverse-proxy pass `https://git.example.com/foo` to `http://gitea:3000/foo`.
3. Make sure the reverse-proxy does not decode the URI. The request `https://git.example.com/a%2Fb` should be passed as `http://gitea:3000/a%2Fb`.
4. Make sure `Host` and `X-Fowarded-Proto` headers are correctly passed to Gitea to make Gitea see the real URL being visited.
### Use a sub-path
Usually it's **not recommended** to put Gitea in a sub-path, it's not widely used and may have some issues in rare cases.
To make Gitea work with a sub-path (eg: `https://common.example.com/gitea/`),
there are some extra requirements besides the general configuration above:
1. Use `[server] ROOT_URL = https://common.example.com/gitea/` in your `app.ini` file.
2. Make the reverse-proxy pass `https://common.example.com/gitea/foo` to `http://gitea:3000/foo`.
3. The container registry requires a fixed sub-path `/v2` at the root level which must be configured:
- Make the reverse-proxy pass `https://common.example.com/v2` to `http://gitea:3000/v2`.
- Make sure the URI and headers are also correctly passed (see the general configuration above).

### Resolving Error: 413 Request Entity Too Large
This error indicates nginx is configured to restrict the file upload size,
it affects attachment uploading, form posting, package uploading and LFS pushing, etc.
You can fine tune the `client_max_body_size` option according to [nginx document](http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_core_module.html#client_max_body_size).
## Nginx with a sub-path
In case you already have a site, and you want Gitea to share the domain name, you can setup Nginx to serve Gitea under a sub-path by adding the following `server` section inside the `http` section of `nginx.conf`:

Then you **MUST** set something like `[server] ROOT_URL = http://git.example.com/git/` correctly in your configuration.

## General sub-path configuration
Usually it's not recommended to put Gitea in a sub-path, it's not widely used and may have some issues in rare cases.
If you really need to do so, to make Gitea works with sub-path (eg: `http://example.com/gitea/`), here are the requirements:
1. Set `[server] ROOT_URL = http://example.com/gitea/` in your `app.ini` file.
2. Make the reverse-proxy pass `http://example.com/gitea/foo` to `http://gitea-server:3000/foo`.
3. Make sure the reverse-proxy not decode the URI, the request `http://example.com/gitea/a%2Fb` should be passed as `http://gitea-server:3000/a%2Fb`.
## Docker / Container Registry
The container registry uses a fixed sub-path `/v2` which can't be changed.
Even if you deploy Gitea with a different sub-path, `/v2` will be used by the `docker` client.
Therefore you may need to add an additional route to your reverse proxy configuration.
