Admin when Auth proxy authentication is used.

authentication and that Grafana server is publicly reachable only with this front proxy.
Datasource proxy breaks this assumption:
- it is possible to configure a fake datasource pointing to a localhost Grafana install with a
X-WEBAUTH-USER HTTP header containing admin username.
- This fake datasource can be called publicly via this proxying feature.");
