server.py: error: unrecognized arguments:
problem:
server.py in docker start arguments not correct , so mcp server start
fail
reason:
```
1. docker-copose.yaml
example - --mcp-host-api-key="ragflow-12345678" is wrong. do not add "" to key or it says:"api-key wrong"
2.docker file entrypoint.sh can not translate config to exec command , we need mapping file from host to docker
- ./entrypoint.sh:/ragflow/entrypoint.sh
3.just add one code raw fix all probelm
```

### What problem does this PR solve?
This PR fixes an issue with the MCP server configuration in RAGFlow's
Docker deployment where:
1. Incorrect parameter naming (`--mcp--host-api-key` with double
hyphens) caused server startup failures
2. Port binding conflicts occurred due to unexposed MCP ports in Docker
3. Inconsistent host addressing between `0.0.0.0` and `127.0.0.1` led to
connectivity issues
The changes ensure proper MCP server initialization and reliable
inter-service communication.
