Notice: Removing various startup options

[oznu]

From the next release of this image, the following startup options will be removed:

• PACKAGES - use the startup.sh script instead, you can edit this in the Homebridge UI
• HOMEBRIDGE_CONFIG_UI - the UI is now required to use this container and will always be enabled
• HOMEBRIDGE_CONFIG_UI_PORT - set the UI port via the config.json directly
• HOMEBRIDGE_INIT_PORT - set the homebridge port in the config.json directly
• TERMINATE_ON_ERROR - no longer required, hb-service will take care of managing the homebridge process
• HOMEBRIDGE_INSECURE - you can set this option via the Homebridge UI
• HOMEBRIDGE_DEBUG - you can set this option via the Homebridge UI
• PUID - no longer available
• PGID - no longer available

Additionally, the crontab service will no longer run inside the container.

Is there a particular reason behind the removal of PUID, PGID and instead replacing them with 1000?

I just noticed that the homebridge user (UID 1000) has now been removed as well in the most recent Dockerfile version and everything now runs as root. I'm curious as to the reason for this decision as it impacts files created on the host OS through the volume mounts.
