Update documentation for remote/local image variants

Reflect the two Docker targets across README, getting-started,
contributing guides, and .env.example with new configuration
variables (CONVERSION_ENGINE, DOCLING_SERVE_URL, DOCLING_SERVE_API_KEY).

### Docker Image Tags
Each release produces two image variants:
| Tag | Description |
|-----|-------------|
| `X.Y.Z` | Exact version |
| `X.Y` | Latest patch of this minor |
| `latest` | Latest stable release |
| `X.Y.Z-remote` | Exact version — lightweight (Docling Serve) |
| `X.Y.Z-local` | Exact version — full (in-process Docling) |
| `X.Y-remote` | Latest patch of this minor — lightweight |
| `X.Y-local` | Latest patch of this minor — full |
| `latest-remote` | Latest stable — lightweight |

## Quick Start
### Docker (fastest)
Docling Studio ships two Docker image variants:
| Variant | Image tag | Size | Description |
|---------|-----------|------|-------------|
| **remote** | `latest-remote` | ~300 MB | Lightweight — delegates to an external [Docling Serve](https://github.com/DS4SD/docling-serve) instance |
| **local** | `latest-local` | ~23 GB | Full — runs Docling in-process (downloads ML models on first run) |
### Docker — remote mode (fastest)
```bash
docker run -p 3000:3000 ghcr.io/scub-france/docling-studio:latest
docker run -p 3000:3000 \
-e DOCLING_SERVE_URL=http://your-docling-serve:5001 \
ghcr.io/scub-france/docling-studio:latest-remote
```
Open [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000)
### Docker — local mode (self-contained)
```bash
docker run -p 3000:3000 ghcr.io/scub-france/docling-studio:latest-local
```
> **Note:** The first analysis takes longer as Docling downloads its ML models (~400 MB). Subsequent runs are fast.
