docs: document dev container runtime limitations - #1900
Conversation
The dev container builds this repository only, so ll-box (from the separate linyaps-box project) and the installed config.yaml under $LINGLONG_DATA_DIR are missing, and sandbox or repository commands fail with errors that do not point at the cause. Document both workarounds and mention ll-cli doctor, which reports each component with a hint.
