Example server configurations only work for single page apps

https://router.vuejs.org/guide/essentials/history-mode.html#example-server-configurations

Steps to reproduce

The example server configurations in the Vue Router documentation only work for single page apps, not multipage apps.

What is expected?

The server should return the correct html content for the specific page requested from a multipage app.

What is actually happening?

The server returns unexpected and incorrect content when the user tries to navigate to other pages in a multipage app.

I recommend adding a note to the documentation warning that multipage apps may require more sophisticated server configuration. An example would be helpful, but not necessary.

This kind of issues would require directly a pull request, an issue doesn't seem to bring any guidance to anybody trying to contribute. I'm closing this in favour of a pull request with a suggestion that includes an example instead of saying things are come complicated and maybe some external links. But I'm not sure this kind of documentation has its place in the router docs in the first place

I think the question we should be asking ourselves is: Is an example configuration for a multi-page app sufficiently complex, relevant, or interesting. If it is one of those then we should think about creating it. What's wrong with having an open issue to suggest that work?
