During my local dev setup, I noticed that the `web-variables.env` file is gitignore'd, but Git keeps reporting it as a changed file. To avoid accidentally committing those changes, I moved the example content to a `web-variables.env.template` file (which will stay committable) and updated the development instructions to match.
Newer versions of the `postgres` image (roughly January 2020 onwards) require setting the POSTGRES_PASSWORD environment variable to be set. This changes `docker-compose.yml` to use the formerly-default password that the `web` container expects.
The current `depends_on` directives in `docker-compose.yml` are only waiting until the dependency containers start, which causes first-time setup to fail with a bunch of errors. This changes those directives to instead wait until the database service is ready for queries and that the migration step has completed sucessfully.

While trying to set up a local dev environment, I ran into a few issues with the Docker Compose setup and env file.
But these changes were all I needed to get set up. The rest of the process worked great!
This PR is split into individual commits (but I wouldn't mind squashing them):
I almost committed my (test) credentials with a hasty
git commit -a!This is the dev environment fix PR that @robbielyman mentioned in #190.
I found that this started the web container with fully-applied migrations a bit more reliably with less noisy error output.
Entirely formatting. No offense taken if you drop this one!
Also, since this is my first interaction here, I want to say thanks for making and maintaining the Blaggregator! It's given me a lot of great stuff to read 😄
