Making a dockerized daemon receive SIGTERM could be very tricky:
firstly, CMD should not use the "shell form", otherwise a "sh -c" process will possess the PID 1 therefore no one can receive the SIGTERM sent from "docker stop";
second, the bitsharesentry.sh should call $BITSHARESD with exec, i.e. let the daemon take the same PID (i.e. 1). Or in another way, a "trap SIGTERM" trick may be employed to make sure the SIGTERM is forwarded to the actual daemon process.
The second patch is optional. I personally encountered segfaults while sending SIGTERM to witness, however SIGINT works well ever.
