docs: Add a note about configuration ordering in /etc/nginx/conf.d

Browse Source 
Users may not be aware that the filename chosen to add extra
configuration in /etc/nginx/conf.d may interfere with nginx-proxy.
nginx-proxy stores its configuration at /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf.
Any files that come before default.conf in alphabetical order will be
applied before default.conf and vice-versa.

This is confusing, because the documentation does not specify how
exactly nginx-proxy interacts with nginx.

This can be remedied by a simple note alerting the users of the
importance of filename choices.

> [!NOTE]
> The filenames of extra configuration files affect the order in which configuration is applied.
> nginx reads configuration from `/etc/nginx/conf.d` directory in alphabetical order.
> Note that the configuration managed by nginx-proxy is placed at `/etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf`.
### Per-VIRTUAL_HOST
To add settings on a per-`VIRTUAL_HOST` basis, add your configuration file under `/etc/nginx/vhost.d`. Unlike in the proxy-wide case, which allows multiple config files with any name ending in `.conf`, the per-`VIRTUAL_HOST` file must be named exactly after the `VIRTUAL_HOST`, or if `VIRTUAL_HOST` is a regex, after the sha1 hash of the regex.
