Summary

Closes part of `ligate-io/ligate-chain#418`. Adds a "Container image" subsection to `/nodes` Install between the existing "Pre-built binary" and "From source" sections.

Why

Each tagged chain release publishes `ghcr.io/ligate-io/ligate-chain:` (multi-arch: linux/amd64 + linux/arm64) via `.github/workflows/docker.yml`. v0.1.3 through v0.2.4 all published successfully. But this surface was never advertised on the operator docs: anyone wanting a containerised follower had to clone the chain repo and `docker build` locally (~10 min cold).

This PR closes the discoverability gap: the GHCR image is now a peer install path alongside the binary tarball and the source build.

What the new subsection covers

  • `docker pull ghcr.io/ligate-io/ligate-chain:0.2.4` (or `:latest`)
  • A worked `docker run` against MockDa with config + genesis mounted from a host checkout
  • Image metadata: debian-slim, runs as uid 1000 (`ligate` user), exposes `12346` (REST) + `9100` (`/metrics`)
  • A `` warning operators away from `:latest` for production (use the explicit tag)

Sibling PR

The chain README PR (ligate-io/ligate-chain) adds the same pointer at the top of Quick start, so source-repo readers and docs-site readers both find the container option.

Test plan

  • Render the new subsection in the Vercel preview — code blocks + Note callout look right
  • Spot-check the `docker pull` URL constructs correctly: `docker pull ghcr.io/ligate-io/ligate-chain:0.2.4` (public; should succeed for anyone)
  • After merge: an operator following the new instructions verbatim gets a running container

…t filenames don't (404 trap); tarball extracts to subdirectory (mv path was wrong)
