fix: inject environment variables into custom Docker Compose build commands

When using a custom Docker Compose build command, environment variables
were being lost because the --env-file flag was not included. This fix
automatically injects the --env-file flag to ensure build-time environment
variables are available during custom builds.

Changes:
- Auto-inject --env-file /artifacts/build-time.env after docker compose
- Respect user-provided --env-file flags (no duplication)
- Append build arguments when not using build secrets
- Update UI helper text to inform users about automatic env injection
- Add comprehensive unit tests (7 test cases, all passing)

/**
* Test to verify that custom Docker Compose build commands properly inject environment variables.
*
* This test suite verifies that when using a custom build command, the system automatically
* injects the --env-file flag to ensure build-time environment variables are available during
* the build process. This fixes the issue where environment variables were lost when using
* custom build commands.
*
* The fix ensures that:
* - --env-file /artifacts/build-time.env is automatically injected after 'docker compose'
* - Users can still provide their own --env-file flag to override the default behavior
* - Build arguments are appended when not using build secrets
