teknium1 a2837ec088 docs(docker): overriding entrypoint: drops the zombie reaper — document init: true; trim the PID-1 warning
Follow-up to the cherry-picked #111584 (@chelsealong):

- website/docs/user-guide/docker.md: new warning block next to the existing
  "do not override the entrypoint" note explaining WHY (with `/init` gone the
  hermes process is PID 1 and nothing reaps orphaned browser/MCP/shell
  children), the Compose `init: true` / `docker run --init` remedy, and that
  supervision is still lost on that path; plus a Troubleshooting entry for
  `<defunct>` processes under PID 1.
- hermes_cli/main.py: `_warn_if_unsupervised_pid1` keeps the `os.getpid() == 1`
  check and drops the `platform.system()` gate and the blanket
  `try/except Exception: pass` — a user process is never PID 1 on any host OS
  (PID 1 is init/launchd; Windows PIDs are multiples of 4), and nothing in the
  check can raise.
- tests trimmed to two invariants (warns at pid 1 / silent otherwise).

Not done, on purpose: a `prctl(PR_SET_CHILD_SUBREAPER)` + SIGCHLD reaper in
main-wrapper/hermes. As PID 1 hermes already receives the orphans; what is
missing is a `waitpid(-1)` loop, and a process-wide one races
`subprocess.Popen` for exit statuses. The maintainer decides whether that
runtime change is wanted; docs + the startup warning cover the reported
deployment.

Website

This website is built using Docusaurus, a modern static website generator.

Installation

yarn

Local Development

yarn start

This command starts a local development server and opens up a browser window. Most changes are reflected live without having to restart the server.

Build

yarn build

This command generates static content into the build directory and can be served using any static contents hosting service.

Deployment

Using SSH:

USE_SSH=true yarn deploy

Not using SSH:

GIT_USER=<Your GitHub username> yarn deploy

If you are using GitHub pages for hosting, this command is a convenient way to build the website and push to the gh-pages branch.

Diagram Linting

CI runs ascii-guard to lint docs for ASCII box diagrams. Use Mermaid (````mermaid`) or plain lists/tables instead of ASCII boxes to avoid CI failures.
