This adds a new HAProxy backend template templates/hap_backend_websocket.tpl, selectable per-domain via the template_override column.

It renders both {name}-backend and {name}-sse-backend with no option http-server-close plus 6h server/tunnel/http-keep-alive timeouts, so persistent WebSocket/streaming connections (e.g. Jitsi /xmpp-websocket, /colibri-ws) aren't cut by the default 10m server timeout / http-server-close behavior.

This was applied live to the running container for jitsi.dnspegasus.net; this PR makes it survive image rebuilds.

Variable names (name, servers, server.server_name/server_address/server_port/server_options) and the resolvers docker_dns init-addr last,libc,none server line match the existing templates/hap_backend.tpl conventions.
