[ollama] open-webui has some settings that have to be passed via env variable

[ErroneousBosch]

Is your feature request related to a problem?

This is to reopen the issue discussed in #19178 .

The resolution and changes presented did not solve the problem because the setting is not stored in the webui.db. It is solely controlled via an environment variable: https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/blob/30b053116d6a40fc60dad1766e83ed41ffcb712c/backend/config.py#L344

it is one of 30+ different options controlled this way: https://docs.openwebui.com/getting-started/env-configuration

Please add a capability of passing environment variables to the webui container.

Describe the solution you'd like

Add an ability to pass Environment variables to the webui container

Describe alternatives you've considered

For a temporary solution under TrueNAS Scale:
You can directly add the env variable to the file located at /mnt/****/ix-applications/releases/ollama/charts/x.x.xx/ix_values.yaml under the "ui" -> "env" section.

ui:
enabled: true
type: Deployment
podSpec:

Due to SCALE Apps deprecation closing this, as we're not going to improve the SCALE Apps GUI further.
