build: one image, nginx in front of the backend on loopback (closes #52)
check / check (push) Successful in 12s

The root Dockerfile builds the only image; Dockerfile.backend is gone.
Its stages: lint, a Go stage that runs the tests and builds
netwatch-server, the node stage, and an nginx runtime. nginx serves
dist/ on 8080 and proxies /api/ and /.well-known/healthcheck to the
backend on 127.0.0.1:8081. bin/entrypoint.sh starts both, turns TERM or
INT into a stop of both, and exits non-zero when either exits on its
own. The backend runs as user netwatch and keeps reports on the /data
volume. New setting BIND_ADDRESS (empty: every interface). STOPSIGNAL is
SIGTERM, since the nginx image's SIGQUIT would miss the entrypoint.
script/docker is the org model verbatim.

### Container image
The root `Dockerfile` builds one image in which nginx listens on the public port
8080, serves the frontend, and proxies `/api/` and `/.well-known/healthcheck` to
this server. The image's entrypoint, `bin/entrypoint.sh`, starts the server as
user `netwatch` (uid 1000) with `BIND_ADDRESS=127.0.0.1` and `PORT=8081`, so
only nginx reaches it. `DATA_DIR` is `/data/reports`, on the `/data` volume,
which `netwatch` owns.
### Report storage
Reports are written as `reports-<timestamp>.jsonl.zst` files in `DATA_DIR`.
