Breaking Changes:

1. Starting from v2.0.0-beta.37, we introduced a new version of the structure of the settings file(v2). When you upgrade to the latest version, it will automatically perform the migration process. Please make sure that the Nginx UI in your server has permission to modify the config file itself. Please check the documentation for more details: https://nginxui.com/.
2. Starting from v2.0.0-beta.36, you must specify the directories where the logs are stored. Only logs within these directories can be viewed online. Check this documentation for more information: https://nginxui.com/guide/config-nginx.html#logdirwhitelist.
3. The CasdoorSettings.Certificate setting has been deprecated and replaced by CasdoorSettings.CertificatePath, which refers to the path of the certificate file.
4. About PR Bugfix/Correct stream conf #445, if you are using nginx-ui docker container and encounter this issue, you have to remove the trailing .conf manually. Diff: https://github.com/0xJacky/nginx-ui/pull/445/files
5. The nginx_log section in the configuration file has been renamed to nginx.
   NginxConfigDir and NginxPIDPath in the server section have been renamed to ConfigDir and PIDPath respectively, and both have been moved into the nginx section.
6. The ReloadCmd and RestartCmd have been added in the nginx section to configure custom commands for reloading/restarting Nginx.
7. In versions above v2.0.0-beta.23 of Nginx UI Docker containers, /var/logs/nginx/access.log and /var/logs/nginx/error.log are no longer soft links to /dev/stdout and /dev/stderr, but regular files. If you need this functionality, please add access_log /dev/stdout and error_log /dev/stderr in your nginx.conf. For users upgrading from older versions who do not need this feature, check if your nginx.conf contains access_log /var/logs/nginx/access.local.log and error_log /var/logs/nginx/error.local.log. If so, please manually remove them to avoid duplicate log entries. This change allows you to map /var/logs/nginx to a directory on the host machine to achieve persistent storage of log files.
