jubnl c1b9d11173 docs: add full wiki with 74 pages, assets, and CI workflow
Adds the complete TREK documentation wiki covering installation,
trip planning, admin panel, MCP/AI integration, addons, and operations.

Also fixes encrypt-at-rest gaps: mapbox_access_token, Synology
credentials, per-user webhook/ntfy tokens, and photo passphrases
are now rotated by migrate-encryption.ts and stored encrypted via
settingsService.

# Updating
How to update TREK to a newer version without losing data.
## Before You Update
Back up your data first. Go to Admin Panel → Backups and create a manual backup, or copy your `./data` and `./uploads` directories to a safe location. See [Backups] for details.
## Docker Compose (Recommended)
```bash
docker compose pull && docker compose up -d
```
This pulls the latest image and recreates the container with your existing volumes. Your data is untouched.
## Docker Run
If you started TREK with `docker run`, pull the new image and replace the container:
```bash
docker pull mauriceboe/trek
docker rm -f trek
docker run -d --name trek -p 3000:3000 \
-v ./data:/app/data \
-v ./uploads:/app/uploads \
-e ENCRYPTION_KEY=<your-key> \
--restart unless-stopped \
mauriceboe/trek
```
> **Tip:** Not sure which volume paths you used? Check before removing:
> ```bash
> docker inspect trek --format '{{json .Mounts}}'
> ```
## Database Migrations
TREK runs any pending database migrations automatically at startup. No manual migration steps are required after pulling a new image.
## Encryption Key Note
If you are upgrading from a version that predates the dedicated `ENCRYPTION_KEY` (i.e. you have no `ENCRYPTION_KEY` environment variable set), TREK automatically falls back to `./data/.jwt_secret` on startup and immediately promotes it to `./data/.encryption_key`. No manual steps are required — the transition is handled at first boot after the upgrade.
If you want to rotate to a new key at any point (not required for a normal update), see [Encryption-Key-Rotation] for the full procedure.
## Unraid
In the Unraid Docker tab, click the TREK container and select **Update**. Unraid will pull the latest image and restart with the same volumes.
## Next Steps
- [Backups] — schedule automatic backups so you always have a restore point before updates
- [Encryption-Key-Rotation] — if you need to rotate or migrate the encryption key
- [Install-Docker-Compose] — switch to Compose for easier future updates
