Fix documentation for roundup-server about the 'host' parameter...
...as suggested in issue2550693, fixes the first part of this
issue. Make 'localhost' the new default for this parameter, note the
upgrading documentation of changed behaviour. We also deprecate the
empty host parameter for binding to all interfaces now (still left in
for compatibility). Thanks to Toni Mueller for providing the first
version of this patch and discussing implementations.
