Update environment variable docs, remove environment-to-ini references (#355)

Browse Source 
The standalone `environment-to-ini` tool was removed in https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/35735 and its functionality is now built into the Gitea binary. This PR:

- Removes outdated links to the removed `contrib/environment-to-ini` directory
- Updates the "Use environment variables to setup Gitea" section in the config cheat sheet
- Adds examples showing how env vars map to `app.ini` settings and the `__FILE` suffix for secrets

These environment variables can be passed to the docker container in `docker-compose.yml`.
