[4726] fix(docs): update sparse-checkout command to include DB-init SQL

[Sanket2329]

Summary

Resolves #4726. When following the self-hosting Quick Start or Remote Deployment guides verbatim, a brand-new OSS deploy comes up with no application databases because the docker-compose.gh.yml file bind-mounts api/oss/databases/postgres/init-db-oss.sql which lies outside the checked out hosting/docker-compose sparse cone.

This PR extends the git sparse-checkout commands in the quick-start and remote deployment documentation to also fetch the api/oss/databases/postgres and api/ee/databases/postgres directories, ensuring that database initialization SQL scripts are present on disk before running the containers.

Testing

Verified locally

• Verified locally that running the sparse clone and checkout instructions verbatim successfully retrieves the DB-init script paths:

  git clone --depth 1 --filter=blob:none --sparse https://github.com/Agenta-AI/agenta
  cd agenta
  git sparse-checkout set hosting/docker-compose api/oss/databases/postgres api/ee/databases/postgres
