Description:
Update README to match the password requirement with dependency. Per mariadb image, the required DATABASE_PASSWORD must be greater than 4 characters.
Benefits of this PR and context:
New user who sets password less than 4 char will cause error similar to database connection issue where previous issues are all arguing DB_PASS or DB_PASSWORD which is not the solution here.
In short, it is extremely difficult to troubleshoot this error. Eventually, I decided to RTFM for one layer up which discovered the solution. This update to README should help preventing future user to pull their hair out.
** PR rule says don't PR for README typo. But this is manual content change. :)
How Has This Been Tested?
Test: setting longer password worked and short password does not.
Hardware: Raspberry PI 4B.
OS: Raspberry PI OS lite, arm64/v8
