Clean up default listener configuration (#4586)

Rearrange the comments to try to clarify them, and expand on what some of it
means.

Use a sensible default 'bind_addresses' setting.

For the insecure port, only bind to localhost, and enable x_forwarded, since
apparently it's for use behind a load-balancer.

# 'all local interfaces'.
#
# type: the type of listener. Normally 'http', but other valid options are:

# key/cert specified in tls_private_key_path / tls_certificate_path.

# X-Forwarded-For header as the client IP. Useful when Synapse is
# behind a reverse-proxy.

# on this port. Options for each resource are:

#
# additional_resources: Only valid for an 'http' listener. A map of

# consent: user consent forms (/_matrix/consent). See
