Update the security guide to document that the Angular SSR request handling pipeline now supports and validates the standard RFC 7239 `Forwarded` header. Previously, only non-standard `X-Forwarded-*` headers were supported for resolving proxy-forwarded protocols, hosts, and ports. With this update: - The standard `Forwarded` header parameters (such as `host` and `proto`) are validated and take precedence over corresponding `X-Forwarded-*` headers when trusted. - The `trustProxyHeaders` option and `NG_TRUST_PROXY_HEADERS` environment variable can be configured to trust the `Forwarded` header. For more details on the implementation, see the corresponding PR: angular/angular-cli#33406
