The goal is to allow defining Redis cache's host/port/prefix without using nginx helper's settings backend page. The three defines are:
If not defined, everything works as is (fallback to the settings stored in options, if empty, fallback to 127.0.0.1/6379/nginx-cache:
If defined, the input fields for the predefined redis settings are disabled, with note underneath to inform the user this field is overridden by defines.
Documentation (FAQ in README.md) is updated to reflect this feature.
The main benefit of this is in multiple server situations (production vs staging, load balanced servers, etc) you don't have to rely on database to inform nginx helper about where to find the redis server.
Thanks and please consider this PR.
