Chris Vermilion 41d169d211 Update stop.md 
Updates the stop.md doc to mention that the stop signal can be changed, either with the Dockerfile or via `docker run --stop-signal`. This is a real gotcha if you're not familiar with this feature and build a container that extends a container that uses `STOPSIGNAL`.

stop

Usage:  docker stop [OPTIONS] CONTAINER [CONTAINER...]

Stop one or more running containers

Options:

  -t, --time int   Seconds to wait for stop before killing it (default 10)

Description

The main process inside the container will receive SIGTERM, and after a grace period, SIGKILL. The first signal can be changed with the STOPSIGNAL instruction in the container's Dockerfile, or the --stop-signal option to docker run.

Examples

$ docker stop my_container
