Subject: [PATCH] Refactor: overhaul Dockerfile with multi-stage build,
 non-root user, and .dockerignore

- Pin golang:1.26-alpine base image (was unpinned)
- Add CGO_ENABLED=0 for fully static binary (Alpine/musl compatible)
- Use BuildKit TARGETARCH auto-detection (arm64 on local, amd64 on CI)
- Cache go.mod/go.sum download layer separately from source
- Strip debug symbols with -ldflags "-s -w" (~10% smaller binary)
- Add non-root user (flowgre:100) for container security
- Inject version via --build-arg VERSION at build time
- Create .dockerignore to exclude .git, docs, IDE configs, build artifacts
- Remove dead git submodule commands (no submodules exist)
- Remove GO111MODULE env var (modules enabled by default since Go 1.16)
- Image size: ~22MB (down from ~30MB with glibc baggage)
- No HEALTHCHECK (flowgre is a CLI tool, not a daemon)
