redis to valkey change: 'requirepass' not respected

The current docs section on secrets has a note linking to a redis issue comment for how to set up docker secrets to provide a password: https://immich.app/docs/install/environment-variables/ However, the current compose files specify valkey instead of redis. Valkey does not seem to accept this same solution. Additionally, the healthcheck ping command may not work without providing the same password. I found a valkey specific issue here: https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey-container/issues/71 Should Immich docs be updated to not hotlink to a redis-only docker secret 'requirepass' solution, given the current suggested configuration uses valkey? Secondarily, is it possible to update docs to cover a solution applicable to valkey? I don't yet have enough of a working config to write a PR for it. Relevant compose section in use, and a comand output from immich-server container

Thank you for raising this! I agree that should be corrected/reflected in the docs. Feel free to create a PR even if you don't have a full working solution. Even a couple lines of text outlining the solution with a couple of links will definitely save time for other folks with a similar setup.
