With so much configuration moving from config and into environment variables, there's a greater need for both collection of configuration and documentation.

This is often accomplished with a .env file which is well documented. This can be either used as is, or placed inside a docker-compose environment instead of an environment section.

Writing a dotenv in Python style isn't too hard, but such things already exist (https://github.com/TheClonker/garrysmod-dotenv). We just need to use it and then document the .env file.

Can this issue be closed? There are issues still relating to env variables, but this issue has been outdated by development.
