Add Nginx configuration and Dockerfile updates for static file handling

The commit includes a new Nginx configuration file to effectively manage static and media files. Dockerfile is updated to create and set the right permissions for media and static directories, and to collect static files. Also, Dockerfile is now set up to use the new Nginx configuration for better consistency and easier deployment.
