Add a Docker Compose file.

A Compose file provides significant advantages even for single-container deployments: It offers a clean, version-controlled YAML configuration that's more readable and maintainable than lengthy docker run commands with multiple flags. The file format eliminates the need to remember complex command-line arguments and enables quick modifications to container settings.

This implementation uses Docker volumes, the recommended approach for persisting container data. Unlike bind mounts, volumes operate independently of the host machine's directory structure and operating system. To use a bind mount instead, users can uncomment the first entry under "volumes:" and comment out the subsequent lines.

The "restart: unless-stopped" directive remains commented out by default, giving users full control over container execution (stopped containers won't automatically restart). Users can uncomment this line to ensure the container runs permanently.
