Subject: [PATCH] Feat: Add the functionality to load environment variables
 from a .env file (#6331)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

### Change Content

- A new function `load_env_file` has been added to load environment
variables from a .env file in the current script directory.
- If the .env file exists, the variables within it will be loaded; if it
does not exist, a warning message will be output.

I found this issue while testing this pr:
https://github.com/infiniflow/ragflow/pull/6327. The locally started
server did not read the REGISTER_ENABLED variables in the .env. The
result has always been the default True
### What problem does this PR solve?

Follow the tutorial in the README.md to start from source code. base's
container that is es、redis，etc will load .env. Therefore,
`launch_backend_service.sh` should also load .env to be consistent with
the configuration of the docker container when it was started

### Type of change

- [ ] Bug Fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)
- [x] New Feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
- [ ] Documentation Update
- [ ] Refactoring
- [ ] Performance Improvement
- [ ] Other (please describe):
