fix: correct Docker smoke test version check and use esbuild bundling

- Fix version field check: use git_describe instead of version
- Bundle server with esbuild (~8MB) instead of copying node_modules (~2GB)
- Final image size reduced from ~2GB to ~365MB
- Only copy native modules (@lydell/node-pty) needed at runtime
