[PATCH 1/3] README: fix .env

The .env setup didn't do GID. It's a bit of a chore to do because
there doesn't seem to be a GID shell variable and because we need
to do a bit more work to get a multi-line thing, but this should
work.

While we're at it, change the docker-compose info, it's hopelessly
out of date.
