Description updated (diff)

I started looking at some of the data directories in the api_server container that would need to be kept separately from code upgrades. These seem to be the most important ones, however we also need a solution so that configuration files don't change (such as the API server prefix changing between api_server image updates). So there's probably some refactoring that needs to happen for this to really work.

    docker create \
           -v /keep-data \
           -v /var/lib/postgresql \
           -v /var/lib/arvados \
           -v /usr/local/arvados \
           -v /home/git \
           --name arvados_data arvados/debian:wheezy
