Refactor Docker setup for Laravel 5.0 compatibility and optimize deployment process

- Updated Dockerfile configurations for various environments (alpine, basic, cloudrun, minimal, simple, test) to ensure compatibility with Laravel 5.0 and PHP 5.6.
- Added PHP compatibility documentation outlining mcrypt requirements and upgrade paths.
- Created cloudbuild.yaml for Google Cloud Build integration to streamline deployment to Cloud Run.
- Introduced docker-compose.local.yml for local development with MySQL and Redis services.
- Enhanced rebuild.sh script for easier local development and migration handling.
- Updated Laravel Blade views to correct asset paths.
- Added start-local.sh script for quick local setup and service management.
