Subject: [PATCH] Docker permissions fix: - Add user directive to
 docker-compose.yml using PUID/PGID env vars - Allows container to run as host
 user, fixing permission issues with   bind-mounted volumes (e.g.,
 ./virtual_printer) - Add chmod 777 to /app/data and /app/logs in Dockerfile
 for non-root compatibility - Usage: PUID=$(id -u) PGID=$(id -g) docker
 compose up -d

Note: Existing named volumes (bambuddy_logs, bambuddy_data) created by previous
root containers may need to be removed or have permissions fixed manually.
