sneak bead5134c2 Add docker-compose.yml for deploying upaas (closes #223)
Check / check (pull_request) Skipped
The compose file builds the image from this repo, mounts the Docker
socket and HOST_DATA_DIR (passed to upaas as UPAAS_HOST_DATA_DIR),
reads settings from .env, and restarts unless stopped. The port is
published on 127.0.0.1 only, for a TLS-terminating proxy in front, and
UPAAS_PLAINTEXT_HTTP is left unset. A healthcheck against /health uses
the runtime image's busybox wget.

The README's plain-HTTP Compose example becomes a short deploy section
that points at the file. .env is added to .dockerignore so settings are
not copied into the build.

**Important**: `HOST_DATA_DIR` **must** be an **absolute path** on the host. It
is bind-mounted into the container and passed as `UPAAS_HOST_DATA_DIR` so that

Docker bind mounts during builds resolve correctly. Relative paths (e.g.
`./data`) will break container builds because the Docker daemon resolves paths
relative to the host, not the container.
The port is published on `127.0.0.1:8080` only, for a TLS-terminating reverse
proxy in front of it. Leave `UPAAS_PLAINTEXT_HTTP` unset behind that proxy.

# Completed Steps
- 2026-09-29: `docker-compose.yml` now sets `UPAAS_PORT` to 8080 as well as
`PORT`, since upaas reads `UPAAS_PORT` first and a `UPAAS_PORT` in `.env` made
it listen away from the port mapping and healthcheck; the README's Compose
section names both (#230).
- 2026-09-29: The README Configuration table now lists every setting upaas
reads, adding `UPAAS_MAINTENANCE_MODE`, `UPAAS_SESSION_SECRET` and
`UPAAS_CORS_ORIGINS`, and gives the real default and effect of each:
`UPAAS_PORT` wins over `PORT`, `UPAAS_HOST_DATA_DIR` falls back to
`UPAAS_DATA_DIR`, `UPAAS_DEBUG` drops the session cookie's `Secure` flag, and
`UPAAS_SENTRY_DSN` is not used (#229).
- 2026-09-28: The README Configuration table now names `UPAAS_DEBUG`,
`UPAAS_SENTRY_DSN`, `UPAAS_METRICS_USERNAME` and `UPAAS_METRICS_PASSWORD`, the
names upaas actually reads (the unprefixed names it listed were ignored), and
the `UPAAS_HOST_DATA_DIR` row refers to `UPAAS_DATA_DIR` (#224).
- 2026-09-28: Added `docker-compose.yml` for deploying upaas: settings from
`.env`, the port published on `127.0.0.1` only for a TLS proxy in front, and a
healthcheck against `/health`; the README's plain-HTTP Compose example is
replaced by a short deploy section. upaas now refuses to start when
`UPAAS_HOST_DATA_DIR` is set to a relative path (#223).
