Add Docker image documentation and workflow (#225)

Adds a CI action to build docker images and publish them to GHCR on
every commit. We can then use these when deploying the registry.

This turned out to be an upstream blocker of building the infra for
deployment, and something like this is needed for either deployment
approach we're exploring.

---

## Summary
- Add comprehensive documentation for pre-built Docker images in README
- Include usage examples and configuration guidance  
- Add GitHub Actions workflow for automated Docker image publishing

+## Pre-built Docker Images
+
+Pre-built Docker images are automatically published to GitHub Container Registry on each release and main branch commit:
+
+```bash
+# Run latest from main branch
+docker run -p 8080:8080 ghcr.io/modelcontextprotocol/registry:latest
+
+# Run specific commit build
+docker run -p 8080:8080 ghcr.io/modelcontextprotocol/registry:main-20250806-a1b2c3d
+```
+
+**Available image tags:**
+- `latest` - Latest commit from main branch
+- `main-<date>-<sha>` - Specific commit builds
+
+**Configuration:** The Docker images support all environment variables listed in the [Configuration](#configuration) section. For production deployments, you'll need to configure the database connection and other settings via environment variables.
