Default php config for nginx

[Schnitzel]

We're having a considerable amount of customers that are trying to run simple php scripts inside Lagoon and are struggling because there is no simple php config available in the nginx image.

Currently the support tells them to copy something like this https://gist.github.com/Schnitzel/6b19074386bc33d80b75f2f4824ecb03 which works for most simple php scripts.

I think though we can improve the Developer Experience even more, with one of these things:
A. create a new nginx-php image (like the nginx-drupal) image that has the nginx php config already in it and loaded
B. add a new php.conf nginx config to the nginx image and explain how to use it instead of the static-files.conf that is defaultly used.

Solution A would definitely be the one with the highest DX, but then we might up having a LOT of nginx-* images for all kind of languages, frameworks and applications.
So maybe Solution B would be a more scalable way for the future.

We just ran into this for a Craft CMS demo (https://github.com/amazeeio-demos/demo-craft-simple)

We approached it in the "A" version way - but after doing this I fully agree that A would result in a lot of nginx-*.

I vote for the B solution.

I would proposed rather than php.conf perhaps php-app.conf or php-server.conf. From a DX perspective php.conf and php.ini are super close - I get that these are unrelated - but from the perspective of a php developer setting this up, I think it could be clearer?
