feat: serve the UI from the backend image, one-port standalone stack

The backend image builds the web UI with scripts/build_frontend.sh and
serves it through docsgpt/ui.py, so the standalone Compose file drops the
frontend container. UI and API share port 7091, published on 127.0.0.1
unless DOCSGPT_BIND says otherwise. POSTGRES_PASSWORD is configurable, and
an optional https profile puts Caddy in front of a public domain.

docker-image-verify.yml starts the standalone stack on the image it built
and checks the API, the UI, /config.js and a client-side route on one port.

**Upgrading from 0.16.x?** User data moved from MongoDB to Postgres in 0.17.0. Follow the [Postgres Migration guide](/Deploying/Postgres-Migration) before running `docker compose pull` or `git pull` — existing deployments will not start cleanly without it.

## Standalone Compose file: one port
The standalone Compose file (`docker-compose-standalone.yaml`) no longer runs a frontend container. The backend image serves the web UI on port 7091, and the port is published on `127.0.0.1` unless you set `DOCSGPT_BIND`. After downloading the new file, start it with `--remove-orphans` to remove the old frontend container, then open port 7091 instead of 5173. If you opened DocsGPT from other machines, see [Upgrading from an earlier standalone file](/Deploying/Docker-Deploying#upgrading-from-an-earlier-standalone-file). The checkout Compose files and the Kubernetes manifests are unchanged.
## Embedding models
DocsGPT now runs embeddings through [FastEmbed](https://github.com/qdrant/fastembed) (ONNX Runtime) instead of SentenceTransformer. The models are the same and the vectors are identical, so **your existing index needs no action** — `all-mpnet-base-v2` keeps working exactly as before.
