fix: make REACT_APP_BACKEND_URL configurable for remote deployments (fixes #352)

When AgenticSeek is deployed on a remote server and accessed from a
different machine, the frontend JavaScript runs in the user's browser
with localhost:7777 which resolves to the user's local machine, not
the server - causing the 'System offline' error even though the backend
is running.

Change docker-compose.yml to read REACT_APP_BACKEND_URL from .env
(defaulting to http://localhost:7777 for local use) and document the
variable in .env.example so users can point the frontend at their
server's public IP when deploying remotely.
