docs(docker): Make example ymls raw-viewable and other copyedit fixes

* Move all *.yml files to docs/public/deploying so they can be viewable
  as raw files on the webpage
* Link to those files with "(view raw)"
* Move minimal environment variables to Docker Compose section
* Unheading the Docker Quick Run stuff to prepare deprioritizing them
* Remove redundant Registry column in Image table
* Rename reverse proxy subsections to have software name as first word

- A domain name pointing to your server's IP address - we will be using `example.com` in this guide.
- A reverse proxy with SSL/TLS certificates (Traefik, Caddy, nginx, etc.) - see [Docker Compose](#docker-compose) for complete examples.

For other deployment options such as serving `.well-known` files, consult the [Delegation/Split-domain](../advanced/delegation) page.

## Docker - Quick Run
Get a working Continuwuity server with an admin user in four steps:
### Environment Variables
1. Pull the image
- `CONTINUWUITY_SERVER_NAME` - Your Matrix server's domain name
- `CONTINUWUITY_DATABASE_PATH` - Where to store your database (must match the volume mount)
- `CONTINUWUITY_ADDRESS` - Bind address (use `0.0.0.0` to listen on all interfaces)
```bash
docker pull forgejo.ellis.link/continuwuation/continuwuity:latest
```
For a list of all config options, see the [reference configuration](../reference/config) page
2. Start the server with initial admin user
### 1. Pull the image
```bash
docker run -d \
-p 6167:6167 \
-v continuwuity_db:/var/lib/continuwuity \
-e CONTINUWUITY_SERVER_NAME="matrix.example.com" \
-e CONTINUWUITY_DATABASE_PATH="/var/lib/continuwuity" \
-e CONTINUWUITY_ADDRESS="0.0.0.0" \
-e CONTINUWUITY_ALLOW_REGISTRATION="false" \
--name continuwuity \
forgejo.ellis.link/continuwuation/continuwuity:latest \
/sbin/conduwuit --execute "users create-user admin"
```
```bash
docker pull forgejo.ellis.link/continuwuation/continuwuity:latest
```
Replace `matrix.example.com` with your actual server name and `admin` with your preferred username.
### 2. Start the server with initial admin user
3. Get your admin password
```bash
docker run -d \
-p 6167:6167 \
-v continuwuity_db:/var/lib/continuwuity \
-e CONTINUWUITY_SERVER_NAME="matrix.example.com" \
-e CONTINUWUITY_DATABASE_PATH="/var/lib/continuwuity" \
-e CONTINUWUITY_ADDRESS="0.0.0.0" \
-e CONTINUWUITY_ALLOW_REGISTRATION="false" \
--name continuwuity \
forgejo.ellis.link/continuwuation/continuwuity:latest \
/sbin/conduwuit --execute "users create-user admin"
```
```bash
docker logs continuwuity 2>&1 | grep "Created user"
```
Replace `matrix.example.com` with your actual server name and `admin` with
your preferred username.
You'll see output like:
### 3. Get your admin password
```
Created user with user_id: @admin:matrix.example.com and password: `[auto-generated-password]`
```
```bash
docker logs continuwuity 2>&1 | grep "Created user"
```
You'll see output like:
```
Created user with user_id: @admin:matrix.example.com and password: `[auto-generated-password]`
```
### 4. Configure your reverse proxy
Configure your reverse proxy to forward HTTPS traffic to Continuwuity. See
[Docker Compose](#docker-compose) for examples.

## Docker Compose
Docker Compose is the recommended deployment method. These examples include

Docker Compose is the recommended deployment method for Continuwuity containers. The following environment variables will be set:
This routes your Matrix domain and well-known paths to Continuwuity.
- `CONTINUWUITY_SERVER_NAME` - Your Matrix server's domain name.
- `CONTINUWUITY_DATABASE_PATH` - Where to store your database. This must match the docker volume mount.
- `CONTINUWUITY_ADDRESS` - Bind address (use `0.0.0.0` to listen on all interfaces).
Alternatively, you can specify a path to mount the configuration file using the `CONTINUWUITY_CONFIG` environment variable.
See the [reference configuration](../reference/config) page for all config options, and the [Configuration page](../configuration#environment-variables) on how to convert them into Environment Variables.
