📄 Description

Latest versions of TrueNAS have been migrated the Apps from k8s to docker and nginx-proxy-manager is the recommended way(in multiple discussion) to be used as a proxy for internal applications. For the setup to be secure and Nginx-proxy-manager to properly forward the traffic to the internal apps, it must be deployed using host_network options.

There are several issues on TrueNAS Apps Catalog repo([Enhancement]: Nginx Proxy Manager - host network and Allow Host Networking for Nginx Proxy Manager) asking for possibility to set nginx-proxy-manager with host_network, but since 80,443 and 81 ports may conflict with other running services on the server, TrueNAS admin require that nginx-proxy-manager should have the possibility to to use custom ports instead of default ones.

This PR change current behavior and adds option for default ports to be changed trough HTTP_PORT, HTTPS_PORT and WEB_UI_PORT environment variables.
