fix(docker): docker-compose-dev-essentials.yaml uses a different network when run standalone

Description
docker-compose-dev-essentials.yaml does not declare a network, while
docker-compose.yaml explicitly names its default network unstract-network.
As a result, running the essentials compose file standalone creates a
docker_default network:
docker compose -f docker-compose-dev-essentials.yaml up -d dbThe same db service under the full compose configuration uses:
unstract-networkThis is inconsistent with the networking configuration inside the essentials file itself, where Traefik is explicitly configured with:
--providers.docker.network=unstract-networkReproduction
From the docker/ directory:
docker compose -f docker-compose-dev-essentials.yaml up -d db
docker inspect unstract-db --format \
'NetworkMode={{.HostConfig.NetworkMode}} Networks={{json .NetworkSettings.Networks}}'Source: Zipstack/unstract
