* Update configuring-playbook-traefik.md
Added docu on how to host another server behind traefik.
* Added MASH and docker options
Added the link to mash and the compatibility adjustments.
Mentioned the prefered method with docker containers.
Some rephrasing to make clear, the intended guide ios for reverse proxying non-docker services.
* Improve wording in configuring-playbook-traefik.md

Most addons live in the same network by default (matrix-addons) right now,
so this network would have usually been created by some other addon.
Howevre, if this is the only addon someone uses, it may have remained
uncreated causing a problem.
I believe `specialized-workers` is a better name than `room-workers`,
because when enabled, 4 different types of specialized workers are
created:
- Room workers
- Sync workers
- Client readers
- Federation readers
Only one of these is called room-workers.
In the future, more specialized workers may be added, making the
`room-workers` preset name an even poorer choice.

Until now, the validation check would only get tripped up
if generic workers are used, combined with at least one EACH
other type of specialized workers.
This means that someone doing this:
```
matrix_synapse_workers_preset: one-of-each
matrix_synapse_workers_client_reader_workers_count: 5
```
.. would not have triggered this safety check.

Hookshot wants a trailing slash for this route.
If we let Hookshot redirect, it goes to `/widgetapi/v1/static/`,
instead of `/hookshot/widgetapi/v1/static/`, so we take this matter into our
own hands.
Public URLs are like: `/hookshot/widgetapi/v1/static/`
.. which get translated to requests for: `/widgetapi/v1/static/`
Previously, we were stripping the whole `/hookshot/widgetapi` prefix,
which is wrong.
Most of these files were defining a service, usually toward the end.
These lines have been moved upward.
Some components (mautrix-signal, mautrix-gmessages, etc.) were defining
a service conditionally (only if metrics are exposed, etc). This was
causing issues like these in the Traefik logs:
> level=error msg="service \"matrix-mautrix-twitter\" error: port is missing" providerName=docker container=matrix-mautrix-twitter-..
This changes the behavior of
`matrix_playbook_migration_matrix_nginx_proxy_uninstallation_enabled`
and is against what we initially described in the changelog entry,
but I've discovered some problems when the `matrix-nginx-proxy` service
and container remain running. They need to go.
This allows people to not include the `matrix-conduit` or
`matrix-dendrite` roles in their custom playbook (based on our roles)
and still not have the playbook choke on variables from these roles
missing.
For getting rid of the `matrix-synapse` role in a similar way,
more work is likely necessary.
After some checking, it seems like there's `/_synapse/client/oidc`,
but no such thing as `/_synapse/oidc`.
I'm not sure why we've been reverse-proxying these paths for so long
(even in as far back as the `matrix-nginx-proxy` days), but it's time we
put a stop to it.
The OIDC docs have been simplified. There's no need to ask people to
expose the useless `/_synapse/oidc` endpoint. OIDC requires
`/_synapse/client/oidc` and `/_synapse/client` is exposed by default
already.
Traefik also serves an internal entrypoint that all addon services
(bridges, bots, etc.) depend on, so it makes sense to have it be
available early on. It is injected as a systemd `required` dependency
for all services, so it would have been pulled earlier anyway (despite
the priority). Nevertheless, it's better to make the playbook-defined
priotities for services match, so that services are explicitly asked to
start in a more correct order.
With these changes in place now, all "start service" tasks executed by
Ansible cause a "change", indicating that all these services are started
in the correct order and none of them is unintentionally started as a
dependency for another.
