Proposed changes

This PR adds comprehensive documentation for hosting static content in Azure Blob Storage using private endpoints through NGINXaaS for Azure.

Changes Made

  • Added new guide: "Hosting static content in Azure Blob Storage using private endpoints"

  • Documented secure blob storage configuration with private endpoints and SAS token authentication
  • Provided complete NGINX configuration examples with Azure internal DNS resolution
  • Implemented maximum security approach with complete network isolation

Benefits
