Support Proxy Protocol v2 ? #1000

Hello,

Consider integrating Fabio behind an AWS load balancer.
AWS offers 3 load balancers: the ELB: Classic Load Balancer, the ALB: Application Load Balancer and the NLB: Network Load Balancer.

Although the ELB is still supported, new integrations are recommended to use either an ALB or a NLB.

To the best of my understanding, Fabio supports only Proxy Protocol v1 (text-based). Of the 3 load balancers above, only the ELB supports Proxy Protocol v1. Both the ALB and the NLB support only Proxy Protocol v2 (binary-based). This means that the only LB usable with Fabio is the ELB.

The only mention of Proxy Protocol v2 with Fabio that I could find is #741, which has been abandoned.

So the question: is there interest/plan in adding support for Proxy Protocol v2 ? Any ideas or previous attempts ? Or am I missing something ? Thanks for Fabio! So straightforward!
