What does this PR do?

Exposes the limitations of the file provider with file system notifications and update the documentation examples accordingly.

Motivation

Sometime, the dynamic configuration is not updated on file changes.
After some tests, we can deduce that according to the configuration, it may be:

  • a broken link between two file systems (host <-> container)
  • a file system behavior/compatibility issue with fsnotify.

So, the issue does not come from Traefik, but from the file systems, the orchestrators and the fsnotify library. That's why we improve the Traefik documentation.

Close #5589
