MarekWoandClaude Opus 5 ed23c9be90 docs(https): match the certificate steps to the Nginx Proxy Manager 2.15 UI
Walking through a real setup showed the guide described an older UI. 2.15 does
not offer "Request a new SSL Certificate" with a "Use a DNS Challenge" checkbox
on the proxy host; certificates are created on the Certificates page, which
splits them into "Let's Encrypt via HTTP", "Let's Encrypt via DNS" and "Custom
Certificate", and the proxy host's SSL tab only selects an existing one.

Rewrites all three options against what the UI actually shows, and adds the
parts that turned out to need explaining while doing it for real: how to scope
the DNS provider API token (single zone, and no expiry -- a TTL breaks an
automatic renewal months later, silently), the shape of the Credentials File
Content box, what the "Not Used" status means, and leaving HSTS off at first.

Verified end to end against a live instance: Let's Encrypt via Cloudflare
DNS-01, proxy host to mc-webui:5000, resulting page served over HTTPS with
socket.io on a real websocket transport and http:// redirecting to https://.
