Previously the admin account was silently auto-generated (username =
ACTUAL_USER, random password) and only created after a fixed 60s
readiness probe — a slow first boot (SQLite init on a slower disk) timed
the whole install out with no account ever created, leaving the user to
create one by hand with a raw docker exec.
Now the install prompts for admin username/password up front, then folds
account creation into the same retry loop used to detect readiness (up to
2 minutes), so a slow-but-eventually-successful boot no longer dead-ends
the install. A retry against a partially-completed prior run (account
already exists) is treated as success and syncs the password instead of
failing outright.
