Standardize how environment variables are migrated to properties during install triggers and migrate all remaining DOKKU_* config vars to their appropriate plugin properties. Adds a reusable MigrateConfigToProperties() function in the common package with Transform callback and ListProperty support, plus a migrate-config-to-property subcommand for the prop binary so shell plugins can use the same code path. Migrated variables and their new property owners: - DOKKU_APP_PROXY_TYPE/DOKKU_PROXY_TYPE → proxy type - DOKKU_DISABLE_PROXY → proxy disabled - DOKKU_PROXY_PORT → ports proxy-port - DOKKU_PROXY_SSL_PORT → ports proxy-ssl-port - DOKKU_APP_RESTORE → ps restore - DOKKU_SKIP_DEPLOY → ps skip-deploy - DOKKU_START_CMD → ps start-cmd - DOKKU_DOCKERFILE_START_CMD → ps dockerfile-start-cmd - DOKKU_DISABLE_APP_AUTOCREATION → apps disable-autocreation - DOKKU_APP_SHELL → scheduler shell - DOKKU_SKIP_CLEANUP → builder skip-cleanup - DOKKU_CHECKS_DISABLED → checks disabled - DOKKU_CHECKS_SKIPPED → checks skipped - DOKKU_CHECKS_WAIT → checks wait - DOKKU_CHECKS_TIMEOUT → checks timeout - DOKKU_CHECKS_ATTEMPTS → checks attempts - DOKKU_DEFAULT_CHECKS_WAIT → checks default-wait - DOKKU_SKIP_ALL_CHECKS → checks disabled (legacy) - DOKKU_SKIP_DEFAULT_CHECKS → checks skipped (legacy) Also refactors existing bespoke migration loops in scheduler, ports, ps, builder, and nginx-vhosts plugins to use the standardized utility. Removes DOKKU_PARALLEL_ARGUMENTS from documentation (unused in core). Deprecates fn-migrate-config-to-property bash function. closes #1558
