解决程序源文件更新了，但是 docker container 中的程序源文件没有更新的问题

问题出在 build.sh 中的 --mount type=volume,src=englishpal-db,target=/app 。
运行 docker container 时，会将整个 englishpal-db 对应的文件夹 /var/lib/docker/volumes/englishpal-db/_data
下面的内容拷贝到  docker container 里面的 /app 文件夹下面。

然而，/var/lib/docker/volumes/englishpal-db/_data 下面的源程序文件并不是最新的（比如其 main.py 是 7月17日的）。
将 target=/app 改为 target=/app/db。即可解决问题。
