Run wp-cli as www-data instead of root; drop --allow-root
--allow-root was routing around wp-cli's own safety check rather than addressing why root was there in the first place: docker exec defaults to the container's root user because the image never sets a non-root user for exec sessions — it was never about the actual web-facing attack surface, which already runs as www-data (verified: php-fpm's worker processes, the ones executing plugin/theme code for real requests, run as uid 33, not root; only our own deliberate admin commands were root). wp-config.php and the rest of wp-core are already owned by www-data (the official entrypoint sets this up), so there's no actual reason for our own commands to run as anything else. Verified: a full clean deploy and a bookstore-core wp-cli command both work identically running as www-data, no functional change, just removed an unnecessary privilege.
