Struchkov Mark b8103cc60a Fix -G parameters not overriding global settings for shares
Problem: When using environment variables, GENERIC was processed before
SHARE, so share sections didn't exist when -G options tried to modify them.
Also, \s regex was not POSIX-compatible for Alpine/busybox.

Changes:
- Reorder env var processing: GLOBAL -> SHARE -> GENERIC
- Replace \s with [[:space:]] in regex patterns
- Add ^ anchor to sed append command
- Add CHANGELOG.md documenting the fix
- Update README.md (sync with Russian version)
- Update README_RU.md with troubleshooting section

## [Unreleased]
### Fixed
- **Share-specific parameters not overriding global settings** ([#issue](https://github.com/upagge/samba/issues))
**Problem**: When creating public shares with guest write access, the `-G` parameters for individual shares did not override the global `force user` and `force group` settings from the base `smb.conf`.
Example that didn't work:
```bash
-s "public;/cloud/share;yes;no;yes"
-G "public;force user = nobody"
-G "public;force group = nogroup"
```
`testparm -s` showed that the share used global `force user = smbuser` and `force group = smb` instead of the specified values.
**Root cause**:
1. When using environment variables, `GENERIC` was processed **before** `SHARE`, so share sections didn't exist when `-G` options tried to modify them.
2. The regex `\s` in sed was not POSIX-compatible for Alpine/busybox.
**Solution**:
- Reordered environment variable processing: `SHARE` is now processed before `GENERIC`
- Replaced `\s` with POSIX-compatible `[[:space:]]` in regex patterns
- Added `^` anchor to sed append command for precise matching
### Changed
- Environment variable processing order: `GLOBAL` -> `SHARE` -> `GENERIC` (was: `GENERIC` -> `GLOBAL` -> `SHARE`)
