fix(docker): run container as non-root and exclude local files from image

- Add .dockerignore: a local .env, the live SQLite database in data/, .git,
  and node_modules were previously copied into the published image by COPY
- Run the app as the unprivileged node user; pre-create /app/data with
  matching ownership so named volumes inherit it
- Set NODE_ENV=production in the image
- Document the one-time volume chown needed when upgrading existing
  deployments

#### Upgrading from images before v0.5
The container now runs as the unprivileged `node` user (UID 1000). Existing data
volumes were written as root, so fix ownership once before upgrading:
```bash
docker compose down
docker run --rm -v check-printing-data:/data alpine chown -R 1000:1000 /data
docker compose up -d
```
