feat(discourse): switch app to official discourse/discourse image (experimental)

Replaces the paywalled bitnamilegacy app with the official discourse/discourse
image behind Traefik (HTTP-only via an install-ssl override; sidekiq is internal
so its service is dropped). DB is reused as-is; uploads migrate from a legacy
bitnami volume via an idempotent, non-destructive runit hook. db keeps
pgvector/pgvector:pg17 with the install-user-aware pg_upgrade entrypoint.

Verified on cctest: fresh install, upgrade-from-bitnami-pg17, and
upgrade-from-bitnami-pg13 (incl. 13->17) all serve with data intact.
Upstream marks discourse/discourse experimental; hold prod cutover.

Recipe 0.8.1+3.5.0 -> 1.0.0+3.5.3 (major: new image, env/volume/port changes).

+## Setup Notes

+Until issue #1 is fixed, the default user is `user` and the default password is `bitnami123`
 
 ## Postgres major version upgrades
 
-Handled automatically. The `db` entrypoint detects an older data directory on
+Welcome to hell.
-deploy and runs `pg_upgrade` in place (it installs the old binaries, detects the
-cluster's real install superuser, and upgrades). No manual dump/restore needed.
 
-## Migrating from the previous (bitnami) recipe
+1. `abra app run YOURAPPDOMAIN db pg_dumpall -U discourse | gzip > YOURAPPDOMAIN_db_DATE.sql.gz`
-
+2. `abra app volume ls YOURAPPDOMAIN`, find the name of the Postgres data volume
-The official image stores uploads under `/shared` rather than bitnami's
+3. `scp` the backup to your VPS
-`/bitnami/discourse`. On first boot the recipe copies uploads + backups from the
+4. `abra app undeploy YOURAPPDOMAIN`
-old bitnami volume (mounted read-only at `/legacy`) into `/shared`, once,
+5. `abra app volume rm YOURAPPDOMAIN`, choose the Postgres data volume
-idempotently. The Postgres database is reused as-is. After a successful migration
+6. `abra app deploy YOURAPPDOMAIN`, then `abra app undeploy YOURAPPDOMAIN`
-a later recipe version will drop the transitional `/legacy` mount.
+7. `ssh` to the VPS, run (replacing `13-alpine` with the new Postgres version)
-
+   `docker run -v YOURDATAVOLUME:/var/lib/postgresql/data -e POSTGRES_HOST_AUTH_METHOD=trust -it postgres:13-alpine`
-If you are upgrading from the bitnami recipe, also remove the now-unused sidekiq
+8. In another SSH session on the server, run `docker ps` to find the ID of the
-service that swarm leaves behind (sidekiq runs inside the app container now):
+   new Postgres container, then `docker exec -it CONTAINERID bash`
-
+9. In the shell you just launched, run `dropdb -U discourse discourse`, then
-```
+   `createdb -U discourse discourse`, then Ctrl+D or run `exit`
-docker service rm YOURSTACK_sidekiq
+10. In the second SSH session, run `zcat YOURAPPDOMAIN_db_DATE.sql.gz | docker exec -it CONTAINERID psql -U discourse`
-```
+11. Exit the second SSH session
+12. Back in the first SSH session, Ctrl+C to shut down the database
+13. `abra app deploy YOURAPPDOMAIN`
