Dockerized version of vnstat-dashboard

vnstat-dashboard-dockerized

Dockerized version of vnstat-dashboard (https://github.com/alexandermarston/vnstat-dashboard).

vnstat-dashboard is a web application (based on PHP and Apache) which shows the network monitoring results taken by vnstat (by hour, day, month...).

I have opened a pull request to the vnstat-dashboard repository (alexandermarston/vnstat-dashboard#9); I have created this repo while it's accepted (or in case it is not).

Any pull request or constructive feedback is welcome :-)
