[documentation] alpine vm install

[finzzz]

I have created script to install etesync server on alpine linux vm. Tested on alpine 3.12. Basically you need to adjust the first 5 variables with your setup. It will automatically generate self signed certificates and serve using nginx. Most importantly, reboot after running this script.

Similar to #40 in concept (just for alpine instead of Debian). I wonder if this belongs as an example or rather in the wiki. I think maybe in the wiki, not sure though.

I also thought that this is more suitable to be put in the wiki. Btw, I encounter this weird issue when trying to connect to the instance. It works fine on the previous version though. I will update the script once I resolve this issue.

400 Found wrong host name. Got: "etesync.domain.com" expected: "127.0.0.1:8000"

I have tried adding more allowed_host or add proxy_set_header as per #66 but nothing works.

Let's continue this discussion in #66, though it indeed seems to be the same issue. I guess this should be better documented. Essentially you want to do two things: Set ALLOWED_HOSTS to etesync.domain.com. And proxy_set_header Host etesync.domain.com;

Thanks, it works! I have updated the script/

Great. :) Will update the readme in a moment.
