Manual install docs are out of sync with 1.9.0 installer output

I looked into the manual install docs issue for Appwrite 1.9.0 and wanted to share the findings, since this seems to need a bigger docs decision.

What I found:

• the current manual install files in static/install/compose and static/install/env are MariaDB-based
• Appwrite 1.9.0 installer output is not just a version bump; it changes structurally depending on the selected database engine
• I tested the installer with MongoDB selected and the generated docker-compose.yml and .env were significantly different from the current docs files
• differences included:
  • MongoDB service instead of MariaDB
  • different depends_on structure
  • updated image versions
  • additional/different env vars such as _APP_DB_ADAPTER
• I ran the generated MongoDB-based files locally with docker compose up -d and confirmed the app loaded successfully at http://localhost
• I also captured screenshots/recordings of the generated files and successful local run

Based on this, it seems the docs may need to support both MongoDB and MariaDB, rather than relying on a single static compose/env pair.

Wanted to ask the team:

• should the manual install docs provide separate files for MongoDB and MariaDB?
• or should the docs move toward telling users to generate the files through the installer flow instead?

Happy to share the screenshots/findings if useful.
