Subject: [PATCH] Implement data persistence for safe app updates

- Add external volume mounting for database, uploads, and media files
- Update Dockerfile to conditionally initialize database only if it doesn't exist
- Move database to external /data volume for persistence across rebuilds
- Configure production environment with proper FLASK_CONFIG
- Add volume mappings for complete data persistence:
  * ./data:/data - Database persistence
  * ./uploads:/opt/moto_site/uploads - File uploads persistence
  * ./static/media:/opt/moto_site/static/media - Media files persistence
- Create init script that skips database creation if DB already exists
- Enable safe app updates without losing users, posts, or tracks

This ensures all user data persists across Docker container rebuilds and app updates.
