Running migrations in k8s-deployed container

[plaes]

Although current documentation contains example on how to run migrations when running Part-DB inside docker, it's not a suitable way to run it inside container deployed in k8s (unless you do some nasty tricks).

In k8s, one should exec into container, and then invoke migrate command using sudo -E -u www-data like this:
sudo -E -u www-data php bin/console doctrine:migrations:migrate

I'm not sure where to add this in the documentation though (maybe add as alternative next to docker install).

Also, I can see that helm-chart uses initContainer as a solution (but this is nowadays considered inferior to using separate K8s Job triggered from Helm hook):

I plan to implement some automatic migration mechanism for the new docker image (#562), as this also makes upgrades much easier.

However, as it's possible that these fail, some automatic backup and recovery mechanism is required, which is not that trivial to implement.
