fix: default TRUST_PROXY to 1 for Docker+reverse-proxy setups (#46)
With the previous default of 'loopback', Express ignored X-Forwarded-Proto headers from Caddy/nginx when running in Docker (bridge IP, not loopback). This caused req.secure=false, which made express-session silently drop the session cookie on login - resulting in a 401 on every subsequent request. Changing the default to 1 (trust one proxy hop) fixes this for all standard Docker+reverse-proxy deployments without requiring manual configuration.

### Fixed
|
||||
- Login failure behind Caddy/nginx reverse proxy in Docker: default `TRUST_PROXY` changed from `'loopback'` to `1` (trust one proxy hop). With `'loopback'`, Express ignored `X-Forwarded-Proto: https` from Caddy (which runs on a Docker bridge IP, not loopback), causing `req.secure = false` and express-session to silently drop the session cookie. The new default of `1` correctly handles any single-proxy setup without requiring manual configuration.
|
||||
- `docker-compose.yml`: added inline comments explaining reverse proxy vs. direct-access configuration
|
||||
- `docs/docker-compose.portainer.yml`: added explicit `TRUST_PROXY` variable with default `1`
