Change Type

[x] Addition
[ ] Correction
[ ] Deprecation
[ ] Cleanup (formatting, typos, etc.)

Area

[x] Installation instructions
[ ] Configuration parameters
[ ] Functionality/features
[ ] REST API
[ ] Administration/development
[ ] Other

Proposed Changes

Extend the reference configurations for nginx and Apache to include HTTPS setup. This doesn't really pertain to NetBox specifically, but a few people have reported problems relating to CSRF validation when HTTPS is in use, so it may help to provide a correct configuration for reference.
