Enable building Canasta installations from local source code for development and testing. When --build-from is specified: - Build CanastaBase from local source (if directory exists) - Build Canasta from local source - Copy Canasta-DockerCompose from local source (if directory exists) - Set CANASTA_IMAGE in .env to use the locally built image Additional changes: - Separate --dev (boolean) from --dev-tag (image tag specification) - Fix SaveEnvVariable to add new keys, not just update existing ones - --dev-tag and --build-from are mutually exclusive
