Sets the header to read the authenticated username from when
`REVERSE_PROXY_AUTH` has been enabled.
Baby Buddy modifies headers in the HTTP request; HTTP headers in the request have all characters converted to uppercase, replacing any hyphens with underscores and adding an HTTP_ prefix to the name. For example `X-Auth-User` would be converted to `HTTP_X_AUTH_USER`.
**Example value**
// For header key X-Auth-User
HTTP_X_AUTH_USER
