A Postgres URL without an sslmode made lib/pq ask for TLS and die with
"SSL is not enabled on the server", which reads like a server fault when
it is really a connection-string default. The error now says what to
append, and the server retries briefly so a deploy is not marked
unhealthy just because Postgres was still starting.
The sync server URL also defaults to the hosted instance now, so a fresh
install needs no setup.
The server is a single process, so a compose file that only wrapped one
container added a second way to do the same thing. Docker is now the one
documented path, pointing at a Postgres that lives outside the container.

Self-hosting meant building the binary by hand and wiring Postgres up
yourself. The image is a static binary on distroless with a built-in
healthcheck flag, and docker-compose brings up Postgres alongside it.
The image itself is unbuilt here: no container runtime is available in
this environment, so only the static Linux build and the healthcheck
flag have been exercised.

Polling re-downloaded the whole store, photos included, every five
seconds. The app now checks a tiny version endpoint and only fetches the
payload when it actually moved, and the server gained request logging,
graceful shutdown, and self-hosting docs so it can run on a VPS instead
of only on localhost.
