Alpine based images are 35mb while debian:bullseye-20230502-slim is 135mb.
Docker-compose could use postgres:14-alpine for another reduction in size.
Also added UID/GID to the docker-compose. This is a best practice. Otherwise the container will run with whatever user is running docker, which could be root. The Dockerfile was also modified to run with a user/group of 1000/1000 which also seems to be a common practice. (Ideally, the perms would be fixed as part of the entrypoint/cwd at runtime as well, to match the env vars, but I didn't do that)
