Create docker image

[charalamm]

Added code for creating a docker image to be used when deploying the terracotta server. It has been used in an azure container app and it had really good results.

Thanks for the PR.

What's the concrete use case for this? It looks like it's meant for production, but why use terracotta serve then instead of a real webserver with concurrency?

The intention is to use the docker image in a containerized deployment. I am going to use that image with azure container apps.
Good point about the real server. I added gunicorn with minimal configuration by default but not sure if it is enough. Do you mean servers like nginx?

Thanks, this looks better now.

1. Could we please move the makefile and dockerignore under a docker/ subfolder to keep this self-contained? (You might have to move the build context one level deeper)
2. Please add a minimal example on how to use this to docker/README.md.

Thanks @dionhaefner for the recommendations, I added them.
