Tests for the "proxy_protocol_v2_tlv" directive in stream and mail. The backend is a Perl daemon that parses the PROXY protocol header itself, so the TLVs are checked as written on the wire; this tells a zero-length TLV apart from an absent one, which reading them back through $proxy_protocol_tlv_* cannot. Also covers the accepted type notation and the rejection of duplicate types, by running "nginx -t" over generated configurations. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-5
