Subject: [PATCH] openlist: declare Alpine install method, align with
 guidelines

- json: add the alpine install method (512 MB / 4 GB, Alpine 3.24) the
  ct script already offers; drop the update-mechanics note
- install: random_password instead of a hand-rolled generator, heredoc
  for the creds file
- ct: closing block down to one extra line
