In `@README.md`:
- Line 312: Remove the duplicate MIFOS_MIN_PASSWORD_LENGTH entry from the
"Session & Performance Settings" table and keep the canonical documentation
entry in the "Password Policy Settings" section; locate the table row containing
the "MIFOS_MIN_PASSWORD_LENGTH" key in the Session & Performance Settings and
delete that entire row so the only remaining documentation of
MIFOS_MIN_PASSWORD_LENGTH is the entry under Password Policy Settings.
- Around line 333-336: Replace the non-standard 4-backtick code fence that opens
with ````bash (the block containing MIFOS_MIN_PASSWORD_LENGTH and
MIFOS_PASSWORD_REGEX) with a standard 3-backtick fence (```bash) and close it
immediately after those two lines with ```, and also fix the later mismatched
fence that opens with ```bash but closes with ```` so both fences use consistent
3-backtick delimiters; look for the offending fences (the ````bash opener and
the later ```bash/```` pair) and normalize them to ```bash ... ``` and ```bash
... ``` respectively.
- Line 398: The README has a Markdown code-fence mismatch: the Docker example
opens with a four-backtick fence (````bash) but closes with only three backticks
(```); update the closing fence (the end of that Docker example) to use four
backticks (````) so the closing fence matches the opening fence and conforms to
CommonMark; locate the Docker example that begins with the ````bash fence and
replace the trailing ``` with ````.
