feat(docker): restore in-app self-update in the Compose deployment

Codeman running under docker/docker-compose.yaml lost the ability to update
itself from App Settings -> Updates. The image had no .git (excluded by
.dockerignore), so the install reported as "unknown"; there was no init system
for detectSupervisor() to find; the runtime stage had neither devDependencies
nor a build toolchain; and a pull into the baked /opt/codeman would have landed
in the container's writable layer and been discarded by the next `up`.

Restore it through configuration rather than a second updater, so the release
channel, auto-stash, status file and boot reconcile are all reused unchanged:

- The checkout Compose builds from is bind-mounted over /opt/codeman, so the
  update's git checkout and rebuild land on the host and survive recreation.
- The restart is the server exiting; `restart: unless-stopped` relaunches the
  container on the new dist/. This is the one supervisor whose updater does NOT
  outlive the restart, which is safe only because the terminal "restarting"
  marker is written first.
- node_modules and dist are named volumes over the bind mount, so
  container-compiled native modules never enter the host checkout.
- The runtime image keeps devDependencies and gains python3/make/g++, since
  `npm run build` is tsc + esbuild and node-pty has no Linux prebuild.

An in-place container update applies code only, because a restart reuses the
existing image and config. evaluateEnvironmentGate() reads the target release's
own files with `git show <tag>:<path>` and refuses when server.Dockerfile or
docker-compose.yaml changed, when .env.example gained keys the user's .env
lacks, or when the restart policy would not bring the container back. The
missing-key check matters most: Compose resolves an unset ${VAR} to the empty
string and starts anyway, so a new required setting would otherwise arrive as a
silently blank variable. Every unknown fails open, and the gate is re-evaluated
server-side on POST /api/system/update.

The four global agent CLIs are pinned, because an unpinned CLI bump is the one
environment change no diff-derived gate can see; pinning turns it into a
Dockerfile change the gate already detects.

Adds test/docker-compose-env-parity.test.ts as the merge-side guard (every
compose ${VAR} has an .env.example entry and the reverse) and
test/docker-self-update.test.ts for the pure gate decisions.

Documented in docs/docker-self-update.md.

## Updating
Codeman updates itself from **App Settings → Updates**, as it does on a bare host. The checkout mounted at `/opt/codeman` is the same directory Compose builds from, so the update's `git checkout` and rebuild land on the host and survive container recreation; the restart is the server exiting, which `restart: unless-stopped` turns into a relaunch on the new build.
That applies application code only. A release that changes `docker/server.Dockerfile`, `docker/docker-compose.yaml`, or adds a key to `docker/.env.example` needs the image rebuilt or the container recreated, which a container cannot do to itself. The updater detects each case and refuses with a message naming what changed; run `docker/Start-Codeman.sh` on the host to apply those.
`CODEMAN_REPO_PATH` overrides which checkout is mounted. It defaults to the compose project's parent directory, so it normally needs no setting. Point it at a directory that is not a git checkout and in-app updates are reported as unavailable.
Full detail, including the fingerprint baseline and the troubleshooting table: [`docker-self-update.md`](docker-self-update.md).
## Docker cases
The default socket path is `/var/run/docker.sock`, which works with a standard Linux Docker Engine. The Bash start script detects its numeric group ID. When running Compose directly, set `DOCKER_SOCKET_GID`, for example using `stat -c '%g' /var/run/docker.sock`, so the unprivileged `CODEMAN_RUNTIME_USER` account can create Docker cases. Docker Desktop users should set `DOCKER_SOCKET` in `docker/.env` only when their Docker installation exposes a different compatible socket path.
