Subject: [PATCH] Add --restart unless-stopped to container
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Auto-restarts the container on host reboot or docker daemon restart, but respects manual `woltspace stop`. No more "have to start the container every time."

Same flag added to backup-restore command examples and HUMANS.md docs for consistency.

No sudo needed — host user just needs to be in the docker group (standard linux setup, automatic on macOS Docker Desktop).
