fix: pin the Python patch version and run the app as a non-root user

Build and Push Image / Build and push image (push) Skipped

Two follow-ups to the review of the base image change.

1. Pin the patch version: `python:3.14-slim` is a floating tag, so a rebuild
   could silently pick up a different base image. It is now
   `python:3.14.10-slim`, so a rebuild is reproducible.

2. Run the app as an unprivileged user. The app only reads its own source
   and talks to Mongo over the network — it writes no files — so it does not
   need to be root. A `beer` system user is created and the image ends with
   `USER beer`.
