Updating Akk Stack

Most of the time, unless instructed otherwise, updating the akk-stack is as simple as running the following command from the root of the akk-stack directory

make down
git pull
docker-compose pull
docker-compose build
make up

This does not touch the database, the server directory, or any of the configuration files. It's a safe way to update the stack without losing any data.

Keep in mind of new environment variables that may be added to the .env file via .env.example
