Hi hackers,

I noticed a small mistake in the PostgreSQL 18 release notes
(release-18.sgml) regarding the new %L escape for log_line_prefix.

Currently, the release note says that %L outputs the "client" IP address:

---
Add <xref linkend="guc-log-line-prefix"/> escape
<literal>%L</literal> to output the client <acronym>IP</acronym>
address (Greg Sabino Mullane)
---

However, %L actually outputs the local IP address of the server. The
documentation for log_line_prefix describes %L as:

> "Local address (the IP address on the server that the client connected to)"

Attached is a patch to correct this in the release notes:

---
Add <xref linkend="guc-log-line-prefix"/> escape
<literal>%L</literal> to output the local <acronym>IP</acronym>
address on the server that the client connected to (Greg Sabino Mullane)
---

Best Regards,
Keisuke Kuroda
