refactor: distribute Acaua as a Docker image instead of a desktop app
Acaua is a collective SOC daemon consuming only Zeek log files, not a
single-user tool needing local hardware like its siblings. Drop the
Tauri desktop shell, installers and self-update entirely; the server
and its web dashboard ship as a container, updated by pulling a new
image tag.

Link against the official prebuilt libduckdb instead of compiling it
from source via the bundled feature, cutting image build time from
15+ minutes to about 3. Fix a real bug found along the way: as PID 1
in a container, the daemon ignored SIGTERM and was always killed
after the stop timeout; it now shuts down gracefully.

Also corrects the Pillar 1 beaconing score: the period estimate had a
harmonic alias (a perfectly periodic 4h series resolved to 600s), and
the old score formula flagged pure random traffic as suspicious
(p95 = 0.839 on Poisson noise). The new formula was validated against
300 samples per scenario.

# Roadmap
**English** · [Português](ROADMAP.pt-BR.md)
This roadmap separates what exists from what is planned. The four pillars are
**under development**; they represent the core analytical work.
## Done
- Rust workspace with `acaua-core` and `acaua-cli`.
- CLI commands, Axum API and embedded web dashboard.
- 100% Docker containerization, compose deployment, non-root hardened profile.
- Prebuilt DuckDB linking and Parquet storage foundations.
- Stubs for the four pillars, evidence fusion, and Zeek ingestion.
- English/Portuguese documentation, CI/release workflows and `scripts/check.sh`.
- Deterministic smoke tests and bilingual UI coverage checks.
## Next
1. **Pillar 1 — beaconing.** Implement the Rayleigh/Schuster periodogram on
event timestamps, add harmonic resistance, and verify with deterministic fixtures.
2. **Pillar 2 — persistent sessions.** Detect long connections that never
produce a short interval, with explicit thresholds and no overlap with
pillar 1.
3. **Real Zeek parser.** Read `conn.log`, `dns.log`, `ssl.log` and protocol logs
with bounded memory, path confinement and deterministic ordering.
4. **Evidence record.** Emit a JSON record per alert with inputs, intermediate
values, code version and dataset hash.
## Later
- Pillar 3 — deterministic protocol anomalies, including identity and
lateral-movement features.
- Pillar 4 — bounded, symmetric fusion with reproducible weights.
- Analytical store optimizations, daily Parquet partitioning and TTL pruning.
- Scheduled ingestion and automated log rotation handling in daemon mode.
- NetFlow/IPFIX as a documented degraded mode and Suricata EVE JSON as an
optional secondary input.
- Signed release metadata, SBOM and reproducible builds.
## Non-goals
- Opaque AI scoring that cannot explain an alert.
- A required cloud service or telemetry pipeline.
- Python in the shipped runtime.
- Treating flow records as equivalent to full Zeek protocol logs.
- Native desktop shell or binary self-mutation.
