v1.1.1: harden deployment for easier fielding

Make a fresh deploy (especially Docker) work with no manual steps and behave
well on real-world hosts:

- Auto-scan skips subnets larger than /20 (e.g. a docker bridge 172.17.0.0/16
  = 65k hosts) so AUTO discovery no longer stalls startup or hammers the
  network on any host with Docker. Manual scan shares the same MIN_SCAN_PREFIX.
- Docker: config.json is auto-seeded from config.json.example by a new
  docker-entrypoint.sh and persisted on a ./data directory mount — no more
  single-file bind-mount footgun, no manual cp before first run.
- Config path is overridable via ADSBIT_CONFIG (defaults to ./config.json for
  bare metal; /app/data/config.json in the container).
- New /health endpoint (status/version/receivers/flights) + Docker HEALTHCHECK.
- Clean SIGTERM/SIGINT shutdown (docker stop / systemctl stop) — no traceback.
- .gitignore/.dockerignore exclude the data/ config volume.
- README/CLAUDE.md updated; VERSION bumped to 1.1.1.

Verified: image builds, fresh `docker run` seeds config and reports healthy,
oversized subnets skipped in-container, /health responds, graceful shutdown.

+### Deployment / fielding notes
+
+- **Config path** is overridable via the `ADSBIT_CONFIG` env var (defaults to `config.json` beside `server.py`). Docker uses `/app/data/config.json` on a mounted volume.
+- **`/health`** (no auth) returns status/version/receiver/flight counts — used by the Docker `HEALTHCHECK` and any external monitoring.
+- **`VERSION`** constant in `server.py` is the single source of truth; surfaced at startup, via `GET /api/config`, and in the admin header. Bump it for releases.
+- **Auto-scan** (`scan_for_receivers`) skips subnets larger than `MIN_SCAN_PREFIX` (/20) so a docker `/16` doesn't stall startup; the manual scan endpoint enforces the same limit.
+- **`docker-entrypoint.sh`** seeds `config.json` from `config.json.example` on first run, so a fresh `docker compose up` needs no manual steps. SIGTERM/SIGINT shut down cleanly (no traceback).
