docs(docker): correct the runtime heap defaults

Same drift as the builder stage, in the paragraphs just below it. The
image exports OMNIROUTE_MEMORY_MB=1024 and derives NODE_OPTIONS from it,
but the guide reported 512 in three places, including the environment
variable table.

The "if unset, the launcher uses 512" line was misleading in both
readings: the image always sets the variable so that branch cannot fire
under Docker, and outside Docker the launcher calibrates from host RAM
rather than using a flat 512.

### Runtime defaults
Defaults exported by `runner-base`: `PORT=20128`, `HOSTNAME=0.0.0.0`, `NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=512`, `DATA_DIR=/app/data`, `OMNIROUTE_MIGRATIONS_DIR=/app/migrations`.
Defaults exported by `runner-base`: `PORT=20128`, `HOSTNAME=0.0.0.0`, `OMNIROUTE_MEMORY_MB=1024`, `NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=1024`, `DATA_DIR=/app/data`, `OMNIROUTE_MIGRATIONS_DIR=/app/migrations`.
Memory behavior in Docker:
- `NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=512` is baked into the image as a fallback.
- The image sets `OMNIROUTE_MEMORY_MB=1024` and derives `NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=1024` from it.
- The actual server process is started by the standalone launcher, which reads `OMNIROUTE_MEMORY_MB` and appends `--max-old-space-size=<OMNIROUTE_MEMORY_MB>`.
- Node uses the last repeated `--max-old-space-size` value, so setting `OMNIROUTE_MEMORY_MB` controls the effective Docker heap limit.
- If `OMNIROUTE_MEMORY_MB` is unset, the launcher uses `512`.
- Because the image always sets it, the launcher's own RAM-calibrated fallback never applies under Docker. Raise it explicitly (`-e OMNIROUTE_MEMORY_MB=2048`) on a host with headroom.
