Show the IP information API on the home page (closes #156)
check / check (push) Canceled after 0s

The home page gets an IP information API card. It shows the curl
command that looks up the visitor's own address at /ip/{addr}. The page
then makes that same request and shows the JSON answer, pretty-printed.
An error answer, such as a 404 for an address with no route, is shown
the same way. A request that fails shows an error line.

The server gives the page the visitor's address, found as /ip/ finds
it, so a trusted proxy's X-Forwarded-For is honoured. The command takes
its origin from the browser, so it names the host the visitor used.
