Cannot link to a non running container

[ebeigarts]

My apps are not starting after restarting the whole server.

$ dokku ps:start <app>

-----> Releasing <app> ...
-----> Deploying <app> ...

My current workaround is to use:

$ dokku elasticsearch:delete <app>
$ dokku elasticsearch:create <app>

You need a pre-release script to start the elasticsearch container first.
This is what I do in my fork, see pull request #13
