Started redesigning architecture to run services directly without Docker:
**Completed:**
- Created new process-based orchestrator (orchestrator_subprocess.py)
- Uses subprocess instead of Docker SDK for process management
- Updated models.yaml to reference service_script paths
- vLLM server already standalone-ready
**Still needed:**
- Create/update Flux and MusicGen standalone servers
- Create systemd service files or startup scripts
- Update prepare-template script for Python deployment
- Remove Docker/Compose dependencies
- Test full stack on RunPod
- Update documentation
Reason for change: RunPod's containerized environment doesn't support
Docker-in-Docker (requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN). Direct Python execution is
simpler, faster, and more reliable for RunPod.

- Set DOCKER_BUILDKIT=0 to use legacy builder
- BuildKit has permission issues in RunPod's containerized environment
- Legacy builder works reliably with RunPod's security constraints

- Changed from systemctl/service to direct dockerd command
- Added --iptables=false --bridge=none flags (required for RunPod)
- Added proper error checking and 10s wait time
- Improved logging with verification step
This fixes Docker startup in RunPod's containerized environment where
systemd is not available and iptables require special handling.
