The login and forgot-password rate limiters were vulnerable to bypass
by manipulating the X-Forwarded-For header. Attackers could rotate
this header value to circumvent the 5 attempts per minute limit.
Changed both rate limiters to use server('REMOTE_ADDR') instead of
ip() to prevent header spoofing. REMOTE_ADDR gives the actual
connecting IP before proxy headers are processed.
Also added comprehensive unit tests to verify the fix.
