Allow containers to be disabled/enabled with docker labels

[philhawthorne]

Add a new feature which will include or exclude a container based on the docker labels present.

This will allow people using docker-compose or the command line to have each container expose or not expose to ha-dockermon.

An example docker compose file would look like

version: '3.0'
services:
  homeassistant:
    image: homeassistant/home-assistant
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=America/Toronto
    volumes:
      - /config
    deploy:
      restart_policy:
        condition: on-failure
      labels:
        - hadockermon.enable=true

Would it be possible to have this functionality to control whether it can be stopped/started via the api too please?

Having a label to enforce a container being read-only would be ideal for more critical containers like Nginx which you may not want to disturb by accident but still be able to monitor what is going on with it.

Great idea @imascarenhas

Would be very useful.
