Apache2 mod-auth-radius - include client IP address

Hi,

Not sure if this is the correct list - if not, apologies.

I've set up mod_auth_radius, which is working great, but it
doesn't include the user's IP address in the radius query. It
would be nice to be able to check against this in certain
circumstances. Of course, proxies and other things can mess with
this, so it can't always be trusted for authorization purposes,
but on corporate LANs where the network is known it should be safe
to use, and is always good to log.

The following mini patch adds the Calling-Station-Id attribute to
the RADIUS request, with apache's remote_ip as the value.

Cheers,

Matthew
