#381: Extra information useful in VCLExamplePurging

 VCLExamplePurging should mention that if vcl_hash is customised, it is
 possible that PURGE requests will not 'hit' as the hash generated for the
 purging server process may not match that generated by a browser. To
 handle this you can purge unconditionally in vvcl_recv:

 {{{
 sub vcl_recv {
         if (req.request == "PURGE") {
                 if (!client.ip ~ purge) {
                         error 405 "Not allowed.";
                 }
                 purge_url(req.url);
                 error 200 "Purged";
         }
 }
 }}}
