Subject: [PATCH] Add optional bookdrop volume and .gitignore entry
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Document an optional 'bookdrop' host folder in docker-compose.yml with a commented example volume mount for the Manual Import (Admin → audiobook → Manual Import) file picker, and add /bookdrop to .gitignore so local bookdrop mounts are not tracked.
