IP packets only have two IP addresses. The source and the destination. libcurl
can return both for you.

If the local address is different in a remote place compared to what it is
when libcurl sends out packets, then something has changed that address along
the way. A so called Network Address Trnaslator, or NAT for short. libcurl has
no knowledge of that and it can't tell you info from that translation since it
never sees that other address, only the remote server does.
