feat: add Nginx reverse proxy for robust CORS handling

Replace direct host port mapping with an Nginx reverse proxy that properly handles CORS for any origin, including Obsidian's app://obsidian.md. - docker-compose.yml: Add nginx service on port 8666, route to internal chroma:8000. Remove CORS env var from ChromaDB (handled by proxy now). - nginx.conf (new): Minimal alpine config with permissive CORS headers, preflight OPTIONS handling, and streaming support (proxy_buffering off). This fixes cross-origin access from remote Obsidian clients connecting over Tailscale or VPN.
