Docker: support SYNAPSE_WORKER envvar (#6058)
* Allow passing SYNAPSE_WORKER envvar

* changelog.d

* Document SYNAPSE_WORKER.

Attempting to imply that you don't need to change this default
unless you're in worker mode.

Also aware that there's a bigger problem of attempting to document
a complete working configuration of workers using docker, as we
currently only document to use `synctl` for worker mode, and synctl
doesn't work that way in docker.
