The env_file option is a better way of loading environment variables
from whoogle.env, and has been added to docker-compose.yml.
The whoogle.env file had comments after each example setting, and it was
not clear that these comments needed to be removed when setting new
values. The comments for each variable have been moved above the
appropriate variable to reduce confusion.
See #303 for initial discussion
This allows the user to enable their preferred settings in a variety of
ways, depending on their deployment preference. Values added to
whoogle.env can be enabled using WHOOGLE_DOTENV=1, in which case all
values in the env var file will overwrite defaults or user provided
settings.

* Adds the ability to redirect reddit.com to libredd.it using the existing
"site alts" config setting.
This adds the WHOOGLE_ALT_RD environment variable for optionally
redirecting reddit links to libreddit
(https://github.com/spikecodes/libreddit).
* Include libreddit in home page site alt note
* Add ability to configure site alts w/ env vars
Site alternatives (i.e. twitter.com -> nitter.net) can now be configured
using environment variables:
WHOOGLE_ALT_TW='nitter.net' # twitter alt
WHOOGLE_ALT_YT='invidio.us' # youtube alt
WHOOGLE_ALT_IG='bibliogram.art/u' # instagram alt
Updated testing to confirm results have been modified.
* Add site alt vars to docker settings and readme
Environment variables should by default be disabled, since they are
optional and need further configuration by the user before enabling.
Readme was updated to reflect this approach, as well as moving the
documentation for the variables a bit lower and properly linking to them
in other areas of the readme.
* Ignore venv when building docker file
* Remove reference to 8888 port
It wasn't really used anywhere, and setting it to 5000 everywhere removes ambiguity, and makes things easier to track and reason about
* Use waitress rather than Flask's built in web server
It's not production grade
* Actually add waitress to requirements
Woops!
