docs: plan the logrotate mode defect
An image whose /etc/logrotate.d/mail is group-writable makes logrotate ignore
the file, so mail.log never rotates and grows until the volume does. The file
is 0644 in git and is widened on the way into the build context: COPY takes the
mode it finds, and an archive made from a checkout without POSIX permissions
carries the umask-widened one. Measured at 0644, 0664 and 0666 across three
images built on one host from the same commit range.

Written up rather than patched because three things are wrong and fixing the
visible one hides the rest: every COPY in the image trusts the build context,
logrotate exits 0 while ignoring the file so the rotate loop reports success,
and nothing anywhere notices that a rotation did not happen. Whether the
release workflow's own images are affected is stated as unverified — the
published image could not be pulled to check.
