Document PM2 configuration and remove unnecessary ready signal
- Added PM2 configuration notes to README
- Documented that wait_ready is false by default (no signals needed)
- Provided advanced usage instructions for users who need wait_ready
- Removed unnecessary process.send('ready') from simple-website example
This ensures users understand the default PM2 behavior and know how
to customize it if needed.

The container automatically generates an ecosystem.config.js file from your package.json if you don't provide one.

#### PM2 Configuration Notes:
 | 
			
		||||
- The auto-generated PM2 config uses **fork mode** (not cluster mode) for simplicity and compatibility
 | 
			
		||||
- `wait_ready` is set to `false` by default - your app doesn't need to send any special signals to PM2
 | 
			
		||||
- If you need advanced PM2 features, you can provide your own `ecosystem.config.js` file
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
**Advanced Usage**: If you want to use PM2's `wait_ready` feature for health checking:
 | 
			
		||||
1. Create your own `ecosystem.config.js` with `wait_ready: true`
 | 
			
		||||
2. Add `process.send('ready')` in your app when it's ready to accept connections:
 | 
			
		||||
   ```javascript
 | 
			
		||||
   app.listen(port, () => {
 | 
			
		||||
     console.log(`Server running on port ${port}`);
 | 
			
		||||
     if (process.send) {
 | 
			
		||||
       process.send('ready');
 | 
			
		||||
     }

   });
