docs: the serial console step starts compose like the other steps

Browse source 
The step ran `docker compose -p webvirtcloud up -d`. The other Docker
steps let compose name the project after the directory, so in a clone
under another directory name this command started a second deployment
with its own volumes.

### Serial console
A VM without graphics (no `<graphics>` device, a `<console type='pty'>`) opens a serial console (xterm.js) instead of VNC. It is off by default. To turn it on, set `WEBVIRTCLOUD_SERIAL_CONSOLE=1` (Docker: in `docker-compose.override.yml`, then `docker compose -p webvirtcloud up -d`) or `SERIAL_CONSOLE_ENABLED = True` in `settings.py` and `systemctl restart webvirt-cloud webvirt-socketiod`.

- The VM page's Settings → Console switches a shut-off VM between VNC and serial (Console type). A new VNC console takes the form's other fields; on a TCP or TLS compute it needs Listen on: All interfaces (only SSH computes reach a localhost console).
- The guest must use its serial port: a login prompt needs `systemctl enable --now serial-getty@ttyS0`, boot messages need the kernel parameter `console=ttyS0,115200`. The console shows only what the guest writes after it opens; press Enter for a new prompt.
