Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Adding the ability to serve static files with nginx-proxy

This is done by intruducing a new VIRTUAL_PROTO=static. The VIRTUAL_ROOT variable points to the static root which should be mounted into the container as volume. Often the container of the static website does not need to run, so I introduced a new environment variable INCLUDE_STOPPED_CONTAINERS that adds the -include-stopped flag to docker-gen

+### Static File Backends
+
+If you want your container to only serve static content, set `VIRTUAL_PROTO=static` on the container.
+You can then set `VIRTUAL_ROOT=xxx` to your static files' root directory. If your static files live in a stopped
+container, be sure to set the `INCLUDE_STOPPED_CONTAINERS=true` environment variable on the nginx-proxy container as
+stopped containers will otherwise be ignored.

+You can create a minimal docker container with your static website files in a volume. The volume can then be mounted
+into the nginx-proxy container and be served with this "backend".
