Proposed changes

After replying to my own discussion thread in #1261 (problem using a unix socket for the nginx stub_status) this PR should add the missing documentation.

Unfortunately at the moment there is no documentation on how to properly use --nginx.scrape-uri= if you want to connect to a socket for the stub_status.

I also added sample configuration.

Improvements and criticism for this are welcome. :-)

And yes: Instead of guessing right in the end I could have just read the source (line 68 in exporter.go).
