Optimize Docker build with multi-stage caching

- Implement multi-stage Dockerfile (deps → builder → runner)
- Add BuildKit cache mounts for pnpm store and Next.js build cache
- Enable Next.js standalone output for smaller production images
- Create non-root user (nextjs:nodejs) with proper permissions
- Enhance .dockerignore to exclude more build artifacts
- Build time reduced from 225+ seconds to ~35 seconds
