Anandesh Sharma 61ef76edb5 docs(gateway): document Docker bridge networking and loopback bind caveat (#28001)
* docs(gateway): document Docker bridge networking and loopback bind caveat

The default loopback bind makes the gateway unreachable with Docker
bridge networking because port-forwarded traffic arrives on eth0, not
lo. Add a note in both the Dockerfile and the configuration reference
explaining the workarounds (--network host or bind: lan).

Fixes #27950

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs(docker): note legacy gateway.bind alias migration

* docs(gateway): clarify legacy bind alias auto-migration

* docs(docker): require bind mode values in gateway.bind

* docs(gateway): avoid bind alias auto-migration claim

* changelog: add #28001 docker bind docs credit
