Merge branch 'master' into 'master'

Separate Dockerfile for Data and Application

This is based on #1158

Instead of creating data container from same docker image, we create separate docker image for data container to avoid keeping original docker image after upgrading to new version. (That results in 1GB space that cannot be freed)

How to upgrade GitLab
========================
To updgrade GitLab to new versions, stop running container, create new docker image and container from that image.
It Assumes that you're upgrading from 7.8 to 7.9 and you're in the updated GitLab repo root directory:
```bash
sudo docker stop gitlab_app_78
sudo docker build --tag gitlab_app_image_79 docker/
sudo docker run --detach --name gitlab_app_79 --publish 8080:80 --publish 2222:22 --volumes-from gitlab_data gitlab_app_image_79
```
On the first run GitLab will reconfigure and update itself. If everything runs OK don't forget to cleanup old container and image:
```bash
sudo docker rm gitlab_app_78
sudo docker rmi gitlab_app_image_78
```
