revert(perf): drop the dockerode and docker-modem pnpm patches

Both patches came out of this work and both are removed at the maintainer's
request. The finding was real - ssh2's WASM heap costs +14.0 MiB RSS on require,
and @grpc/grpc-js another 14.6 MiB across 61 files, neither of which a
socket-based Docker install ever uses - but patching a dependency means every
future dockerode or docker-modem bump fails until someone regenerates the patch,
and that recurring cost is not worth roughly 25 MiB.

The finding stays on record in SERVER-MEMORY.md because the fix belongs upstream:
both packages require a module at file scope while using it in exactly one
already-guarded branch, so a PR to each would fix it for every consumer with no
patch to maintain here.

The two remaining patches, @types/node-unifi and trpc-to-openapi, predate this
work and are untouched. allowUnusedPatches was already set on dev and is left
alone. Lockfile regenerated: patchedDependencies now lists only those two.

Also sharpens the Cache Components entry. The SqliteError was simply an unmigrated
build database, which is fixable - but feeding the build a database would be the
wrong fix, because serverSetting is per-installation data on the user's volume and
a shell prerendered against the build machine's database would bake one install's
settings into every other install's first paint. The error was Next.js correctly
reporting a request-time read sitting in the shell path.

The ssh2 / `@grpc/grpc-js` finding (−15 to −18 MiB external) is deliberately **not** in this table: it
was implemented as two pnpm patches and then reverted, because patching a dependency breaks on every
upstream bump. The finding is recorded in [SERVER-MEMORY.md](./SERVER-MEMORY.md) and belongs upstream.
