Non-functional behind Traefik reverse-proxy

[Jekotia]

I have deployed LogForge behind traefik, while still leaving port 3000 exposed for testing purposes.

When I access https://logforge.example.com:

• Sometimes the header loads, but the body simply reads "network error"
• Sometimes the header loads, but the list of docker containers is empty
• Sometimes everything loads, but clicking on "Edit Alert Keywords" opens a dialogue that never loads

When I access http://logforge.example.com:3000, none of the above applies.

My changes from your compose file can be summarised as such:

• separate each component service into its own file, pulled together at run-time with "include"
• rename services & containers to use a dot instead of a dash as the "separator" character, and apply to all references (to follow the existing conventions of my service deployments)
• add hashes to the image tags (I hate using "latest" and want consistency and manually-elected updates)
• remove all lines relevent to watchtower, for the same reason as the above
• add labels for traefik reverse proxy
• change NOTIFIER_WEB_PORT in .env to 8085, to be consistent with the majority of instances of this port
