helm: refine openshift-values.yaml for assigned UID ranges (#8396)

* helm: refine openshift-values.yaml to remove hardcoded UIDs

Remove hardcoded runAsUser, runAsGroup, and fsGroup from the
openshift-values.yaml example. This allows OpenShift's admission
controller to automatically assign a valid UID from the namespace's
allocated range, avoiding "forbidden" errors when UID 1000 is
outside the permissible range.

Updates #8381, #8390.

* helm: fix volume.logs and add consistent security context comments

* Update README.md

+## OpenShift Support
+
+SeaweedFS can be deployed on OpenShift or any cluster enforcing the Kubernetes "restricted" Pod Security Standard. By default, OpenShift blocks containers that run as root or use `hostPath` volumes.
+
+To deploy on OpenShift, use the provided `openshift-values.yaml` which overrides the default configuration to:
+1. Use `PersistentVolumeClaims` instead of `hostPath`.
+2. Enable `runAsNonRoot` and omit hardcoded UIDs to allow OpenShift to assign valid UIDs automatically.
+3. Apply appropriate `seccompProfile` and drop capabilities.
+
+Usage:
+```bash
+helm install seaweedfs seaweedfs/seaweedfs \
+  -n seaweedfs --create-namespace \
+  -f openshift-values.yaml
+```
