This commit adds a Dockerfile and wrapper script that allows a chantool image to be used as an Umbrel app for easy use by non-technical users. The "app" only spins up a background container that can be executed into and run CLI commands manually. The entrypoint and bash wrapper scripts are only there to give guidance and improve UX.

To make it easy for Umbrel users to run
chantools, we want to package it as an app on their platform.Because Umbrel apps are Docker based, all we need to do is package
chantoolsin a Docker image.Since there is no application that can run in the background, we also need to add some wrapper scripts that explain to the user what they need to do.
To run actual
chantoolscommands, the user will need to open a terminal/shell into thechantoolscontainer to execute commands there.The advantage to the user is that they don't need to care about the details of installing a command line tool.
And the
lnddata directory (if available) will be mounted to a predictable directory within the container (/lnd).
