HTTP: Migrating from YAML section seems inaccurate

Feedback

In the https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/http/#migrating-from-yaml section, the order of steps seems inaccurate. The "HTTP Server" section was not visible until after the http: block was removed from configuration.yaml and Home Assistant was restarted.

This was notable since I have my installation behind a reverse proxy and needed to confirm that the trusted proxy settings were in effect (they were).

I think the steps should be:

1. Remove the http: block from configuration.yaml.
2. Restart Home Assistant.
3. Go to Settings > System > Network.
4. In the HTTP server section, check that your imported values are correct. If Home Assistant asks you to confirm the settings, confirm them.

@fdmarcin @MartinHjelmare, commenting here since #47261 is locked.

The "HTTP Server" section does not appear until the http: block is removed from configuration.yaml.

I don't think that's accurate. Something else was amiss.

I set up a test instance to reproduce this, and after exploring a bit this seems to be attributable to a stale frontend cache. My apologies for this.
