Subject: [PATCH] fix(tubearchivist): use Docker-compatible paths for
 cache/media

TubeArchivist uses TA_CACHE_DIR and TA_MEDIA_DIR directly as URL paths.
In Docker these are /cache and /youtube, matching nginx locations.
Our paths (/opt/tubearchivist/cache, /opt/tubearchivist/media) broke
video playback URLs and file downloads.

Create symlinks /cache and /youtube pointing to data dirs, set env vars
to match Docker defaults. Aligns nginx alias paths with official config.
